Why Durafence PVC fencing?

Vinyl fencing has become increasing popular the world over. Unlike timber or metal PVC l will not crack, rust, fade or rot and is backed by a 15yr warranty.

With its green image, longevity, maintenance free properties and versatility PVC has become the number one fencing choice for home privacy, garden landscaping, pool areas, schools, farms and parks including golf and cricket venues.

Durafence PVC fences use a superior durable grade and high content (10parts per 100 parts) of non-chalking T102 (titanium dioxide) and ultraviolet inhibitors that protect the PVC from the harmful effects of the suns UV rays.

PVC has five times the tensile strength of wood and four times the flexibility, the flexibility and strength will allow is to withstand normal wind loads.

PVC fencing will expand and contract according to temperature. This is normal and expected which we allow for when installing the fencing.

Titanium Oxide is the main ultraviolet inhibitor, it is a white pigment. It is difficult to obtain a dark colour while having a significant white pigment. That is why our light grey panels will fade slightly and the white panels are colour stable. Dark colours will quickly fade.

Although not classified as graffiti proof , PVC fencing can be cleaned using an abrasive cleaner such a jiff or
similar or in extreme cases methylated spirits or mineral turpentine then washed with soapy water,  you maybe left with an oily ghosting but this will disappear over time. 

There should be no reason to paint PVC. Any paintings voids the warranty.

Similar to most fencing they are installed with concrete around each fence post , in high wind zones we recommend aluminium inserts in every second or third post for extra strength.

Gates are custom built to any size to match the fence from pedestrian gates to  driveway gates .
We can also arrange automation.
