Often, if you’re managing a project in a public area, it means you’re dealing with crowds. Whether you’re organizing an outdoor event or performing light construction work in a public setting, you may find yourself in need of crowd control fencing. Thankfully, you don’t need to start scouring the internet for crowd control fencing for sale. If you need barriers for a short-term project, there are suppliers who offer temporary fence rentals.
Crowd control barriers come in a variety of styles. You’re probably familiar with stanchions, commonly seen at malls and movie theatres and consisting of a post with a retractable belt. Even a simple wooden post and rope solution can serve as a sort of crowd fence.
However, there are situations that demand a more robust crowd control barricade. Outdoor events and festivals typically deal with very large – and sometimes rowdy – crowds. Light construction or renovation work also requires a sturdier crowd control solution to ensure the safety of passersby.
Crowd control fencing is used for a number of different applications. Some of the most common uses include:
– Light indoor construction or renovation work that poses minimal risk to passersby. Note that crowd control fencing is not recommended for hazardous work. Always consult municipal bylaws related to temporary fencing standards for construction sites

Our standard temporary fence panels are professionally engineered for strength and durability to provide the highest level of security in the rental fence industry.

Our standard panels may be integrated into any one of our specialized solutions – such as our concrete block ballast system – for added safety and security.
Available in lengths of 5′ and 10′, and heights of 4′, 6′, and 8′, our standard green fence panels suit a wide range of applications.
