Fencing across Mosman Council

What we install in Mosman

  • Aluminium fencing – rust-free flat top, vertical picket, blade and slat aluminium fencing for coastal and front-boundary use
  • Pool fencing – aluminium flat top and tubular barriers built to AS 1926.1-2012 with self-closing gates
  • Slat and louvre screens – aluminium horizontal slat, vertical slat and louvre fences, screens and gates in any powder-coat colour
  • Colorbond fencing – new boundary fences and replacements in 1.5 m to 2.4 m heights, any Colorbond colour, either sheet profile

Ground, access and local conditions

Steep sandstone slopes to Middle Harbour and Balmoral Beach; salt exposure on the harbour-facing streets.

  • Salt air means aluminium over steel for open front fencing and pool fencing; Colorbond boundary fences are specified with the right fixings.
  • Sloping blocks call for stepped Colorbond or retaining walls; access via steps is common and allowed for in the price.
  • Slat and louvre privacy screens are popular where neighbours overlook from above.
