Education Fence Solution

NgaruMesh is a contemporary design for folded rigid wire fencing that draws inspiration from traditional Māori motifs, notably the koru and ngaru. The koru, symbolizing new life, growth, and peace, is derived from the spiral shape of an unfurling fern frond. The ngaru motif represents ocean waves and embodies the dynamic movement of water. By integrating these elements, Ngarumesh harmoniously blends cultural symbolism with modern functionality, offering a fencing solution that reflects both
aesthetic beauty and structural integrity.

Ngaru Mesh 358 is the same cost as tubular steal or aluminium fencing but much higher security, more see-through and more durable.

HDG - $199/m

HDG + local powder coat - $243/m

The Mercury Panel is an aluminium raking panel that is easy to install and won’t ever rust. Four configurations: Pool, Balustrade, School and Security, all based around a patented raking mechanism that allows the panel to rake up to 30 degrees making this the ultimate versatile fence and balustrade panel.

Chunky 25mm SHS pickets are rigidly fixed to the rails with an innovative and patented mechanism that doesn’t need a large gap in the rail and is super rigid when fixed into the posts.

The Mercury Balustrade Panel is a full-width (2.4m post centres) Building Code compliant system made from proprietary aluminium extrusions and incorporates Edgesmith’s patented system that allows the assembled panel to rake up to 30 degrees without losing rigidity. The Mercury Commercial balustrade system differs from the Residential system of the same name in that it has a 50x40mm top rail. Not only does the larger section feel better underhand, it has internal stiffening webs that add a huge amount of rigidity to the panel with little extra weight. It is a panel without compromise

Its ability to rake makes it ideal for ramps, stairs and retaining walls on undulating ground. Chunky 25mm SHS pickets are rigidly fixed to the rails with an innovative and patented mechanism that doesn’t need a large gap in the rail and is super rigid when fixed into the posts. Gates are available for pedestrians or driveways, made to order to fit your opening.

The Roger Bionik-6 is a powerful automatic barrier arm that is ideal for commercial applications. Capable of operating an arm of up to 6m, 5000 times a day. It has a compact 36v brushless motor that delivers the smoothest torque application in the market, prolonging the life of the gearing, beam and other mechanical parts. Being low voltage, the operator is inherently safer than high voltage operators and has the additional benefit that battery backup can be achieved at low cost.

• Bionik 6m - $5300
• Bionik 4m - $3700

The conflicting requirements of the school fencing design standards that call for gates to be self-closing and the design for access and mobility standards that require gates to be easy to operate for people with limited strength or dexterity. The standard states that consideration should be given to mechanisms like automatic opening systems, which ensure ease of use for all individuals, including those with physical disabilities. Gate operators designed for driveway gates are overpowered for a pedestrian gate and require expensive safety devices to make them suitable for pedestrian usage. The Ngarumesh disabled access gate utilises a Belgium made operator that is specifically designed for the purpose with disability access with push-and-go or push-button activation, delayed closing and the ability to set timers for locking after hours. It is a cost effective and safe way to meet the design requirements.

Indicative Cost:

• $4810 for Ped Gate, Locinox Venus automatic closer and electric strike + latch or mag-lock.

Kids love slamming doors and gates but this is really dangerous and reduces the lifespan of the gates and hardware, let along the damage to the nerves of the teachers and administrators at the school. Our NgaruMesh pedestrian gates are made from HDG steel and designed to last for 20 years in intensive usage. They utilise soft close hydraulic hinges and a durable magnalatch or stainless steel insert lock mounted at 1.5m high. A great looking and highly functional gate.

Indicative Cost:

• From $2225 for 1.8mH x 1.2mW including soft close hinges and latch.
