We offer a range of fencing heights, finishes and compatible gate options, subject to your project requirements.
Contact Collinson Fencing on 01268 411671 to discuss your 358 mesh security fencing requirements.
What Is 358 Mesh Security Fencing?
358 mesh fencing is a high-security welded steel mesh system. The name comes from its nominal mesh aperture measurements of approximately 3 inches by 0.5 inches and its nominal horizontal wire diameter of 8 gauge.
The closely spaced apertures make it difficult to gain a foothold for climbing and restrict access for cutting tools. The resulting mesh panel provides a secure perimeter while retaining visibility across the boundary.
Unlike fencing systems with larger mesh openings, 358 mesh is designed specifically for applications where resistance to climbing and cutting is an important consideration.
The overall effectiveness of a security fence depends on more than the mesh panels alone. Fence height, posts, fixings, foundations, gates, ground conditions and the wider security arrangements should all be considered when selecting a system.
Where Is 358 Mesh Fencing Used?
358 mesh security fencing is suitable for a range of commercial, industrial and specialist perimeter applications where enhanced physical security is required.
Industrial and Commercial Premises
358 mesh can be used to secure warehouse boundaries, factories, commercial yards, storage facilities and other business premises. Its open mesh construction allows visibility while providing a substantial physical barrier.
Transport and Infrastructure
The system is used in high-security applications such as railway depots, transport facilities and infrastructure sites. The appropriate specification will depend on the security requirements of the individual location.
Restricted-Access Areas
Where access needs to be controlled, 358 mesh fencing can form part of a wider perimeter security arrangement. Suitable gates, secure fixings and additional protective measures can be considered as part of the overall design.
Collinson Fencing can discuss your site requirements and help identify a suitable fencing configuration.

Galvanised and Powder-Coated 358 Mesh Fencing
The finish of your security fencing is an important consideration when planning a new installation.
Galvanised 358 Mesh Fencing
Hot-dip galvanising provides a protective zinc coating to help resist corrosion. It is a practical option for many commercial and industrial perimeter fencing installations.
Powder-Coated 358 Mesh Fencing
Polyester powder coating can provide a coloured finish where the fencing needs to complement the surrounding environment, buildings or corporate colours.
Available colours and finishes should be confirmed when requesting your quotation.
358 Mesh Security Gates
Gates are an important part of any secure perimeter. The access points should be considered alongside the fencing panels, posts and foundations to create a suitable overall installation.
Collinson Fencing's published 358 mesh specification includes options for single-leaf, double-leaf and sliding gates. The appropriate arrangement will depend on the available space, vehicle access, pedestrian access and site requirements.
When requesting a quotation, let us know whether you require pedestrian access, vehicle access or a combination of both. We can then discuss the available options for your project.
Additional Security Options
Depending on the site and its security requirements, additional perimeter protection may be considered alongside 358 mesh fencing.
Options identified in our published specification include barbed wire, razor wire and anti-vandal toppings, where suitable. These measures require careful consideration of site safety, legal requirements, access arrangements and the intended security application.
The correct approach is to assess the complete perimeter rather than select a fence solely on the basis of its mesh specification.
