How V-Mesh Fencing Stopped Fly-Tipping at a Busy Industrial Estate in Epsom

10-Hour Perimeter Security: Installed with Zero Disruption


In this case study, we explore how a leading UK security company tackled the pressing challenges of fly-tipping and theft at an industrial estate in Epsom. Through the strategic implementation of V-Mesh perimeter fencing and secure access gates, the team not only enhanced the site's security but also did so with minimal disruption to daily operations.


This project exemplifies precision planning and rapid execution, setting a new standard for effective security solutions in high-activity environments.

Project Overview


  • Client: Leading UK security company

  • Location: Epsom, UK

  • Scope: V-Mesh fencing with vehicle and pedestrian gates

  • Installation Time: One weekend (10 hours total)

  • Goal: Prevent fly-tipping and theft while maintaining business continuity

 

Background


We were contacted by a leading UK security company responsible for managing an industrial estate in Epsom. The site had become increasingly vulnerable, with repeated incidents of fly-tipping and theft causing concern among tenants and management alike.


Although the estate remained operational and well-used during the week, its open boundaries were creating an easy target for unauthorised access. The client needed a security solution that would address the risks without disrupting daily business operations.

With those priorities in mind, we were brought in to assess the site and deliver a fast, effective response.

 

The Challenge:

 

The primary challenge we faced was the estate's high activity level. With constant customer traffic and deliveries, any security enhancements needed to be implemented with minimal disruption. Understanding the importance of maintaining business operations, we recognised that the timing and speed of our response were crucial.

 

Our Solution


Following a detailed site survey, we proposed a perimeter security upgrade using:


  • Durable V-Mesh fencing

  • Two vehicle gates for delivery access

  • Two pedestrian gates for controlled entry


We scheduled the full installation over a single weekend to prevent any weekday interference. This solution offered long-term protection with short-term disruption — ideal for the client’s operational needs.

 

Execution and Timeline


To meet the tight deadline, we fully mobilised our fencing specialists and logistics team.


Key Actions Taken:


  • Implemented on-site traffic control

  • Delivered fencing and gates from stock

  • Completed full installation within 10 hours

  • Ensured safe access and compliance throughout


Despite the ambitious timeframe, the project was delivered on time and without incident.


Outcome:
