Temporary Mine Site Fencing

Mining sites present a range of unique challenges that require strong, compliant, and secure fencing. With constant heavy machinery movement, high-risk zones, and extreme weather, standard temporary fencing fails to provide the durability and security required in mining operations.

Mining sites demand high-security, durable, and regulation-compliant fencing to protect workers, assets, and operational zones. Fortawall delivers industry-leading temporary fencing solutions built for Australia’s most extreme mining environments.

Benefits of Fortawall Fencing

  • Extreme wind resistance – engineered to withstand gusts up to 165km/h
  • Superior security – bolted-in fence panels prevent tampering or unauthorised access
  • Hazard-free design – eliminating hazards for workers and vehicles
  • Rapid installation – reduces labour time by up to 70%
  • Compliant – adhering to Australian standards of mining and workplace safety regulations

From mine sites and exploration zones to processing plants and accommodation villages, Fortawall provides the toughest of temporary fencing solutions for Australia’s most demanding mining environments.

Why Fortawall is the Best Fencing Solution for Mining Sites

Designed for Remote & Harsh Mining Conditions

Mining sites often operate in remote locations where extreme heat, dust storms, and strong winds pose challenges for standard fencing. Fortawall is engineered for durability, ensuring long-term stability even in Western Australia’s tough weather environments.

Zero Maintenance & Long-Term Durability

Unlike traditional fencing, which requires constant realignment, repairs, and replacements, Fortawall’s heavy-duty construction and UV-resistant materials provide years of reliable use without deterioration, even in extreme conditions.

Safe for Heavy Machinery & High-Traffic Zones

Mining sites are fast-paced environments with constant movement of trucks, loaders, and drilling equipment. Fortawall’s fully enclosed base eliminates trip hazards, ensuring unobstructed access for vehicles and workers while maintaining a secure perimeter.

Adaptable for Expanding or Moving Mine Sites

Mining operations regularly shift, expand, and change layouts. Fortawall’s modular system allows for quick relocation and expansion without compromising security, making it ideal for exploration sites and long-term mining projects.

Prevents Environmental Hazards & Contamination

Mining operations must control dust, debris, and hazardous materials to comply with environmental regulations. Fortawall’s enclosed base prevents debris movement, reducing contamination risks and ensuring compliance with site containment protocols.

Mining Areas that Benefit from Fortawall Fencing

Open-Pit & Underground Mines

Mining operations require strict access control to protect workers and equipment. Fortawall fencing provides a secure, highly visible perimeter, preventing unauthorised entry into hazardous zones. With bolted-in panels and a stable base, it remains secure in high-traffic mining environments where traditional fencing is unreliable.

Exploration & Drilling Sites

Remote exploration sites need durable yet flexible fencing to secure expensive equipment and define work zones. Fortawall’s modular design allows for quick setup and relocation, making it ideal for short-term drilling projects or expanding operations in harsh environments.

Mine Camps & Worker Accommodation

Protecting worker accommodation areas is essential for site security and compliance. Fortawall’s solid base prevents unauthorised access and wildlife intrusion, while its fully enclosed structure contains dust and debris, creating a cleaner and safer living environment.

Processing Plants & Refinery Sites

Processing facilities handle hazardous materials and heavy machinery, requiring high-security fencing. Fortawall’s reinforced structure prevents unauthorised access, while its wind-resistant design ensures stability in high-vibration areas such as refineries and industrial plants.

How Fortawall Outperforms Standard Temporary Mining Fencing
