At Football Pitch Fencing, we provide professional-grade fencing systems designed specifically for football pitches across the UK. Whether for grassroots clubs, schools, local authorities, or professional training grounds, our fencing solutions are built to maximise safety, control access, and keep play areas secure.

With a wide range of options tailored to different pitch layouts and usage levels, we offer full installation, maintenance, and customisation to meet the specific demands of football environments.

How Much Does Football Pitch Fencing Cost?

The cost of football pitch fencing ranges from £75 to £150 per metre, depending on the fence height, material type, and installation complexity.

Prices are mainly influenced by specifications such as twin-wire mesh or rebound panels, inclusion of ball-stop netting, site accessibility, and the addition of branded or colour-coated finishes. Groundwork preparation, gate installation, and final fittings are usually included in the overall project cost.

Which Types of Football Pitch Fencing Are Suitable for Pitches?

We supply a range of football pitch fencing systems to suit different levels of play, budgets, and site requirements, including:

• Twin-wire mesh fencing – A strong, low-maintenance system ideal for full-sized and community football pitches, offering high durability and visibility.
• Rebound panel fencing – Designed for small-sided or high-impact games, featuring solid lower panels that absorb ball impact and keep play consistent.
• Chain-link fencing – A cost-effective option suitable for perimeters, training areas, or low-traffic zones where affordability and practicality are key.
• Ball-stop netting systems – Installed above fencing to prevent balls from leaving the play area, ideal for urban or confined pitch settings.
• Spectator rail fencing – Combines mesh infills and sturdy rail tops, providing safe viewing boundaries for players and spectators.

What Height and Mesh Specification Should Football Pitch Fencing Have?

Standard football pitch fencing is typically 3m to 5m in height, depending on the sport level and setting. 50x200mm mesh is commonly used for twin-wire fencing to balance visibility and strength.

For pitches near roads or residential areas, extended height fencing (up to 6m) may be installed along one or two sides to minimise ball escape. Base rebound panels, often 1.2m high, help withstand repeated impact from the ball and players.

Does Football Pitch Fencing Include Gates and Ball‑Stop Netting?

We provide a complete football pitch fencing solution that includes single and double-leaf access gates, maintenance gates, and optional ball-stop netting above mesh fencing where needed.

Netting is particularly useful at either end of the pitch to reduce ball loss during high shots. Gates can be keyed or fitted with coded locks, and sizes are customisable for vehicles, maintenance equipment, or emergency access.

How Quickly Can Football Pitch Fencing Be Installed on Sites?

We typically install football pitch fencing within 2 to 4 weeks of booking, depending on site conditions and project scope.

Our experienced installation teams manage all aspects of setup, from post setting to mesh panel fitting and gate alignment. Projects with modular rebound systems or complex site access may take slightly longer, but we offer flexible scheduling to accommodate usage deadlines or season starts.

What Materials Are Used For Football Pitch Fencing?

We use premium-grade materials to ensure strength, durability, and compliance with football pitch facility standards, including:

• Galvanised steel twin-wire mesh – Offers excellent rigidity and impact resistance, ideal for high-use football environments.
• Powder-coated twin-wire systems – Provide additional corrosion protection and are available in various colours to match club or school branding.
• Galvanised chain-link mesh – A lightweight and cost-effective option that maintains flexibility and perimeter containment.
• High-pressure rebound panels – Constructed from composite or timber-faced materials to withstand repeated ball impact in small-sided games.
• Rolled hollow steel posts – Engineered with anti-corrosion coatings and concreted foundations for long-term stability and structural integrity.
• PVC-coated mesh options – Enhance weather resistance and visual appeal, suitable for facilities seeking a polished appearance.

Can Football Pitch Fencing Be Customised With Club Colours or Branding?

We offer full customisation of football pitch fencing through powder-coating in team colours, printed mesh banners, and custom gate signage.

This not only improves the pitch’s appearance but also supports club identity and visibility at matches or public events. Rebound panels can also be painted or wrapped to showcase sponsors or motivational messaging.

What Maintenance Requirements Come With Football Pitch Fencing?

Football pitch fencing requires periodic inspection for damage, especially at gate hinges, panel joints, and rebound sections.

We offer maintenance packages that include routine checks, panel replacements, bolt tightening, and rust prevention. For high-traffic pitches, servicing is typically recommended every 6 to 12 months to ensure compliance and safety.
