Temporary Fence Rental
A temporary fence rental secures a construction site, event or property with chain link panels, barricades or crowd control barriers. Measure the run, plan the gates and check your city's rules, then send a request with your details.
What temporary fencing is used for
Construction sites use fencing to keep people out and protect materials. Events use it for crowd control, entrances and secured areas. Property owners use it around vacant lots and repairs. For traffic and road work, see the traffic control equipment rental guide.
Types of temporary fencing
| Type | Best for |
|---|---|
| Chain link panels on stands | Construction sites and long runs |
| Driven post chain link | Longer projects needing more security |
| Privacy screen or windscreen | Blocking views and dust |
| Crowd control barriers | Events, lines and entrances |
| Plastic barricades | Short-term perimeters and walkways |
How to choose the right fence
- Measure the run. Panels come in set lengths, so add up the total.
- Plan gates. Vehicle and walk-through gates need their own panels.
- Think about wind. Privacy screens catch wind and need extra bracing.
- Consider security. Taller fences and locked gates deter theft.
- Check access. Fences can't block fire lanes or required exits.
How to plan a fence install
- Mark the fence line and gates.
- Check your city's rules for fencing on sidewalks or streets.
- Confirm the supplier will install, or plan your crew.
- Add sandbags or weights for stability.
- Inspect the fence after storms and high wind.
- Schedule removal when the job ends.
Mistakes to avoid
- Blocking exits or fire lanes. It's dangerous and often illegal.
- Skipping bracing on windy sites. Panels can blow over.
- Forgetting gates. Crews and deliveries need access.
- Leaving gaps. People will find them.
- Not checking permits for public sidewalks.
Tips before you request
- Have your address, dates and total fence length ready.
- Ask whether delivery, install and removal are included.
- Ask about privacy screens and gate options.
