Childcare Fencing Western Suburbs of Melbourne
We Specialise in Childcare Fencing
At JFG Commercial and Industrial Fencing, we specialise in building fences for childcare centres across Melbourne’s Western suburbs.
We provide a range of fence styles designed specifically for childcare centres, while making sure they comply with the safety standards set by the Victorian Government.
According to these Victorian regulations, a childcare fence must prevent children from going through, over, or under it.
To improve security even more, we recommend adding safety locks or spring-loaded latches to gates and ensuring that pre school aged children cannot climb over or slip under the fence.
At JFG Commercial and Industrial Fencing, we provide an extensive range of childcare fencing solutions throughout the Western suburbs of Melbourne.

Benefits of Fencing for Childcare Centres
In addition to keeping young children safe, it is well known that by having a security fence around the perimeter of an education facility that it significantly reduces the incident of vandalism. This includes childcare centres in the Western suburbs of Melbourne.
Less money that has to be spent on repairing damage caused by vandalism can be better spent on students instead.
Instead, money is spent on creating a beautiful space that is safe for children. A space that makes learning and playing enjoyable for young children.

Victorian Regulations for Childcare Fencing
According to current Victorian regulations, a childcare provider must ensure that any outdoor area used by children is fully enclosed by a fence or barrier designed to prevent preschool-aged children from going through, over, or under it.
This allows for a variety of fence styles, including tubular, Hercules, chainmesh, and weldmesh. While pool fencing is also a viable option, it tends to be more expensive.
Although the Victorian regulations do not impose specific height requirements, it is generally recommended that a minimum height of 1.5 metres is appropriate. The distance between the verticals should ideally be between 80-100 mm, and the distance between the horizontals is recommended to be no less than 900 mm.
It is always a good idea to consult with local authorities to find out if your childcare centre may be eligible for a grant to help cover fencing costs.
