Sports and high-ball fencing
Tall perimeter fencing for sports grounds: it keeps balls inside the field of play, guides spectators and still allows clear sightlines. Panels are supplied as stacked tiers so that standard container dimensions are respected.
Also known as: Sports fence · Ball stop fence · Stadium perimeter fence · Multi-tier fence

Typical configuration
H 4,000–6,000 mm behind goals, 2,000–3,000 mm along touchlines
Higher sections are concentrated where the ball leaves the pitch most often.
Typical configuration

Perimeter and dividing fences between adjacent courts.
Typical configuration
H 3,000–6,000 mm, full enclosure
Complete enclosures where balls must be fully contained.
Typical configuration
H 2,000–4,000 mm, colour to match venue
Combined with spectator barriers and gates.
Panels above about 3,000 mm become difficult to handle and uneconomical to ship. Stacking two or three shorter tiers reaches the same height while keeping component sizes within standard container limits.
It follows where the ball actually leaves the field. Behind goals and at the corners, the fence is usually higher; along the touchline it can be lower. A common approach is to vary the height around the perimeter rather than use one value everywhere.
Yes, and it becomes the governing factor above about 4,000 mm. The post section and wall thickness must be checked against the local wind speed, so the site location should always be given when enquiring.
