Site entrance gates

[flanagaj]

I've been using Heras panels for our site entrance, but last night's storm has busted them and I lost a pair last year to wind.  I'm now contemplating just buying a set of proper steel site gates and putting them.  Yes. They are nearly £900, but I just need a better solution than Heras.  

 

We have nosey neighbours and I like to screen it off and am currently using the hoarding that supposedly allows the wind through, but it's definitely not that great and is probably the reason for panels snapping.

 

Caravan life is great.  It's either been Baltic or lashing down.  We want to get cracking, but the weather is certainly not in our favour.

Look on Facebook, normally a few sets on there knocking around for half what your quoting, will sell for same money at end.

Baltic? you must be in the first balmy part of caravan life, early days, wait until it gets Yellowknife like (minus 32 tonight...)

Need a big old hole for the proper site gates. I think heras would be fine without the netting but you want the privacy

Heras fencing with a dense camo net over it?

You wouldn’t see them then though…… 👀

Scaffold debris netting is really cheap and it's easy to fix multiple layers over your Heras to trade off letting wind through versus total privacy.

If you want more wind protection then diagonally brace using a scaffold pole fixed to the Heras with a swivel coupler onto another pole fixed into the ground.
