Choosing
How do you choose the right fence panel?
The choice comes down to three questions. How large is the area to be enclosed, does the fence need to prevent climbing, and how visible is the fence in the look of the property?
For large industrial areas, a chain-link fence is the economical solution. At day-care centres safety is decisive, and the Eemeli vertical bar fence meets the requirements without additional structures. At commercial properties appearance often decides, and a welded mesh panel fence or the Emilia vertical bar fence blends in better with the surroundings.
The differences between the two most common mesh fences are covered in the article chain-link fence vs welded mesh panel fence (in Finnish). Guidance on choosing the fence height can be found in our fence height selection guide (in Finnish).

|---|---|---|---|
| Chain-link fence | Woven mesh, mesh sizes 40x40 and 50x50 mm | 1000-3000 mm, in 250 mm steps | Large industrial, storage and logistics areas |
| Welded mesh panel fence Eco W | Welded three-wire panel, mesh size 50x200 mm | 630-2430 mm, in 200 mm steps | Commercial properties and sites where appearance matters |
| Vertical bar fence Eemeli | Closed frame, 25x25 mm vertical bars, bar spacing under 89 mm | 1200-2400 mm | Day-care centres, schools and other safety-critical sites |
| Vertical bar fence Emilia | 20x20 mm vertical bars set diagonally, 40x30 mm horizontal profile | 1200-2000 mm | Head offices, public agencies and prestigious grounds |

Where is a chain-link fence the best fit?
A chain-link fence is the most cost-effective way to enclose large areas, because its price per square metre is lower than that of a panel fence.
The flexible mesh structure tolerates frost heave, and individual damaged panels can be replaced separately. Maintenance needs are minimal and the service life is 20-30 years. The open mesh structure is compatible with CCTV and automation systems.
Typical sites include industrial properties and logistics areas, storage yards and loading areas, energy infrastructure and electrical substations, schools and sports facilities, and housing companies.
Mesh fences
What is the difference between a chain-link fence and a welded mesh panel fence?
A chain-link fence is a woven mesh, while a welded mesh panel fence is a welded panel. The difference shows in rigidity, appearance and price.
The flexible structure of a chain-link fence tolerates frost heave without breaking, and a single damaged panel can be replaced separately. Mesh sizes are 40x40 and 50x50 mm, with a wire diameter of 2.5 or 3 mm. For industrial sites the recommended height is 1800-2200 mm.
The Eco W welded mesh panel fence is a three-wire panel with 6 mm vertical wires and 8 mm horizontal wires. The structure is rigid and needs no tensioning. It comes as standard with 30 mm high spikes as an anti-climb barrier, and the surface is hot-dip galvanised and powder-coated in the RAL colour of your choice.
Why does a vertical bar fence cost more than a mesh fence?
A closed-frame steel structure with square tube bars is more demanding to manufacture than a mesh panel. In return, the fence does not bend, does not sag and needs no tensioning.
- Eemeli has 25x25 mm vertical bars, bar spacing under 89 mm and a panel length of 2500 mm
- Emilia has 20x20 mm vertical bars set diagonally and a 40x30 mm steel horizontal profile
- No horizontal surfaces to climb on
- Flat top on which clothing does not snag
- Meets the safety requirements for day-care centres without additional structures
Complete service
What determines the price of a fence panel?
The price depends on the fence model, the length and height of the fence line and the ground conditions. Rock ground, frost-susceptible soil and sloping sites all affect the foundation work.
The post spacing of a chain-link fence is about 3 metres, and 2.5 metres at corners and next to gates. The foundation is a 700 mm concrete foundation, a rock anchor or a ground anchor. These determine the amount of work, which is why every quote is site-specific.

Delivery options
Installation or supply only?
Both are possible. With supply only, you receive the panels, posts and fixings for your own installation. With a turnkey delivery, Pur-ait handles everything from groundworks to finishing.
The quality of the installation determines whether the fence lasts. The post foundation must be dimensioned to withstand frost.
The course of a fencing project from the client's point of view is described in the article the stages of a fencing project for the client (in Finnish).
Supply only
Panels, posts and fixings are delivered ready for your own installation. Dimensioning is done together before ordering.
Turnkey installation
Our own installation team handles the foundations, posts, panels and finishing. We are responsible for the work right through the warranty period.
Maintenance and repair
Straightening posts, tightening fixings or replacing a single panel. We also maintain fences from other manufacturers.
Higher protection level
When is a standard fence panel not enough?
When a site falls within the scope of the Finnish CER Act, or a required delay time against intrusion has been defined, a certified structure is needed.
Data centres, power plants and critical infrastructure require LPS 1175 certified fences with a tested delay time against forced entry. For these sites we supply Betafence fences and crash-rated gates.
