Securing the future of sustainable living with Jacksons Fencing

In a recent partnership aimed at boosting both security and visual appeal, Jacksons Fencing was tasked with providing a bespoke fencing solution for a new housing development in Gilbourne Road, Greenwich. This development, which features 15 net-zero council homes, was designed with sustainability and energy efficiency at its core, using eco-friendly materials and advanced energy-saving technologies.

Located in London, where environmental standards are continuously evolving, the project posed a unique challenge. The developer required a solution that would harmonise with the modern, minimalist design of the homes while fulfilling the practical need for perimeter security. With this in mind, Jacksons Fencing applied its expertise to design and install high quality metal railings that met the project’s rigorous standards for both functionality and aesthetic appeal.

Secure, sustainable, and stylish

The challenge for this project was clear: protect residents and maintain environmental integrity without compromising the design principles of the net-zero homes. The solution? Jacksons Fencing Sentry® Residential metal railings and Barbican Imperial® vertical bar railings were installed to deliver a functional, aesthetically pleasing fencing solution that met all the project’s diverse needs. These metal railing systems are designed to seamlessly blend with the surroundings, enhance the visual appeal of the properties, and provide long-lasting security.
Jacksons Fencing’s team worked closely with the developers to understand the specific requirements of the site and the needs of the residents. The result was a sophisticated, low maintenance metal railing system that incorporated durable materials while aligning with the sustainability goals of the development.

Where durability and design meet

The net-zero homes in the development are constructed to the highest standards of energy efficiency, featuring solar panels, triple glazing, air source heat pumps, and sustainable building materials. Designed to offer low running costs and minimal maintenance, every aspect of the project was carefully planned to uphold sustainability. The metal railings installed by Jacksons Fencing were not only designed to meet these eco-friendly standards but also seamlessly integrated with the homes’ green credentials.

The metal railings define property boundaries while supporting urban greening efforts. Their low height and open design allow foliage to grow naturally, enhancing green spaces. With a galvanised steel construction and corrosion-resistant powder coating, the railings offer durability and excellent rust protection. This long-lasting solution, backed by a 25 year guarantee, meets the sustainability goals of the development while complementing the net-zero homes’ modern aesthetic.

Long-term security with a low environmental impact

Commenting on this successful project, Peter Jackson, Managing Director at Jacksons Fencing, expressed, “At Jacksons Fencing, we understand that developments like these net-zero homes require security solutions that not only offer protection but also complement the modern, sustainable design.

Our metal railings provide durability, security, and an aesthetic that enhances the homes’ environmental credentials. We’re proud to have contributed to this project, supporting the development’s commitment to both sustainability and safety with a long-lasting, high quality fencing solution.”
