Hoop top metal railings

Bow Top Fencing

Perfect for a wide variety of applications, Bow Top fencing, also known as hoop top railings, provides a versatile and durable demarcation solution, ideal for schools, parks, light commercial properties, and for use as residential metal railings. Our Bow top fence panels have a pale-through-rail construction with no visible joins and are immensely strong.

Their tubular construction means they are lighter than traditional wrought iron railings and require fewer support posts, making installation faster and reducing costs. We manufacture and supply quality Bow Top fencing and gates which conform to UK Building Regulations, and also offer powder coated options.

Bow Top correspond(s) to the generic component/material "steel" in the BRE Global Guide online generic specification(s) "Galvanised steel railings" which achieve(s) a summary rating of B within commercial, domestic, residential, health, industrial, education.

    This is a hedgehog friendly product

    The pale spacing allows free movement of hedgehogs in search of food, mates, and shelter, which is essential for their survival.
