FAQs About Fences
Ensure the safety and security of your worksite with United Rentals' temporary fencing options, with inventory ranging from privacy windscreens to interlocking steel barricades. Commonly utilized for managing traffic, securing construction sites or organizing outdoor events to keep your visitors safe, these temporary fencing solutions ensure site safety and crowd control. The 6-by-12-foot fence panels have anti-climb features, keeping unwanted visitors out. Use 8-by-12-foot fence panels when you need greater height for additional security. For adding additional height to your existing fence solution, we carry fence height extension panels, used to convert a 6-foot panel into an 8-foot panel.
