What Our Clients Said

amazing work by the team at Longain Fencing - we had Colourbond and chain link fencing installed and had a great experience. Great communication, superb quality, and friendly efficient workers.

Longain Fencing did a great job! The team was professional, easy to communicate with, and worked incredibly fast. They even brought in a whole crew to get the job done, finishing nearly 200 metres of fencing in just two days. The quality is excellent, and their pricing is reasonable too. Overall, really happy with their service and would definitely recommend them!

We recently had a fence installed by Longain Fencing. They were excellent to deal with from start to finish, quick to quote, professional in communication, and had the job completed within a week.

The materials are excellent quality as I wanted, communication was smooth throughout, and the installation process was handled very professionally. I am extremely satisfied with the final result and would highly recommend this company.
Brad
I had a PVC chain fence installed by Richard (Longain). His team arrived on time as promised and finished the job over 2 days. They were very professional (and left no mess behind). Was going to go with a larger company but I am very happy with my decision
Doran
We had a small but challenging residential job: difficult terrain, difficult access, lots of rock, unable to use machinery. Nothing was too difficult for Longain. The team even worked through the rain to finish the job. I am happy to recommend Longain for fencing.

FAQ

1. How does a top and bottom rail system differ from standard chainwire fencing?

Standard chainwire fencing typically uses only a top rail. Adding a bottom rail provides extra structural support along the base of the fence, reducing the risk of sagging, lifting, or distortion over time. This makes it a stronger, longer-lasting option for sites that need greater durability or face regular impact and movement. 

2. Can a top and bottom rail system be added to an existing chainwire fence?

Yes. Longain Fencing can upgrade an existing chainwire fence by retrofitting a top and bottom rail configuration. This is a practical option if your current fence is beginning to sag, lose tension, or show signs of wear, without needing a full replacement.

3. How much maintenance does a top and bottom rail chainwire fence require?

Very little. The galvanised steel construction is designed for reliable, long-term performance with minimal upkeep. Periodic visual checks for any signs of damage or corrosion, and clearing any debris from the base of the fence, are generally all that is needed.

4. What sites and applications is top and bottom rail chainwire fencing best suited to?

It is well suited to warehouses, factories, schools, sporting facilities, storage yards, construction sites and other high-traffic areas where the fence is likely to face regular impact, movement, or pressure. It works for both residential and commercial or industrial applications where extra strength and a neat, professional finish are required.

5. What materials are used for the rails and chainwire mesh?

The fencing systems are manufactured using high-quality galvanised steel, which provides corrosion resistance and long-term durability in Australian outdoor conditions. Galvanised steel requires minimal maintenance and holds up well against weather, UV exposure, and general wear.
