US-BASED PrivacyLink, a manufacturer and distributor of fence products, is expanding into the Gulf region in response to increased interest in its products and services.

“We have received a number of enquiries and requests for job quotes recently from various countries outside north America. To help meet these needs, we are venturing for the first time into the Gulf region where we would like to introduce our products to dealers, contractors, builders, and distributors and learn of potential interest,” said Steve Crosgrove, national sales manager at PrivacyLink.

“Our fence products are expertly designed and built to fit a wide variety of needs. Some fit the needs for security and site control while the others are built with an attractive finish to serve residential and business properties,” he said. “We have also introduced this year our new solar fence, which works well for protection around solar panels and systems.”

“In addition, we are especially looking forward to introducing a new chain link fence with pre-woven fence slats that has been designed especially for solar panel systems.”

“Unlike regular chain link fence with slats, this unique system leaves additional space between slats for wind control while still providing protection of the solar facility,” Crosgrove said.

PrivacyLink has been manufacturing and distributing a full line of fence products across the US and North America since it first opened its doors in 1995. Its beginnings were marked by marketing primarily chain link fence, chain link fence with “pre-woven” fence slats and privacy decorative fence slats.

Today, it also offers vinyl, concrete, ornamental and horse fences, besides the latest solar fencing. In addition, it provides a complete line of fittings, hardware and accessories.

PrivacyLink’s chain link fence products offer durability, strength, and protection. “Although not known for their elegant appearance, chain link fence products can be greatly enhanced by inserting privacy decorative slats into the chain link weave,” Crosgrove said.

Chain link fence comes in several weight gauges and can even be fused bonded with a vinyl coating.

Privacy decorative slats are also available in a variety of attractive colours.

Vinyl fencing, attractive to look at, is suitable for residential and business complexes, and is offered in a number of different styles and colours.

RhinoRock Concrete Fence is a lightweight yet affordable concrete fence. It is fabricated by combining a high-performance fibre-reinforced concrete outer shell with a structural foam core. Each 6 ft by 9 ft (1.83 m by 2.74 m) panel weighs just 230 pounds (145.15 kg) and offers a 160-mph (257.50 km/hr) wind load capacity. Installation is easy with just a three-man crew sufficient to erect between 300 and 600 ft (91.44 and 182.88 m) per day. The unique fabrication process also translates into lower production, installation and shipping costs, according to Crosgrove.

PrivacyLink offers several galvanised steel fence systems. TouchStone is a galvanised steel panel with a powder-coated surface that gives the fence a stone-like appearance. Jerith ornamental aluminium and steel fencing consists of a number of styles and colours that complement residences and business complexes and the existing landscaping.

HorseSense is a galvanised steel rail fence specifically designed to contain and protect horses and livestock and used for paddocks, around pastures and ranch properties, “HorseSense gives not just a beautiful appearance but also helps protect the aggressive animals,” he said.
