MULTI-SPORT > FENCING FOR MULTI USE GAMES AREAS (MUGA)
Choosing the correct fencing for Multi Use Games Areas (MUGA) can be confusing and quite often the right specification may
be overlooked. Deciding the right height and specification
can make a real difference to the success of your project.
At Steelway Fensecure Ltd we understand that budget is often the
driving factor in any project. As such we are quite specific with our
clients that during the planning stages of project specification the right
balance of price to specification ratio is achieved. Rectifying poor
specification or insufficient fence height several months/years later
can prove costly in the long term life of your Multi Use Games Area.
We have, through careful research and engineering knowledge,
developed the optimum specification in our Rebound fencing.
Due to the compact size of the Rebound mesh, the overall strength
is much greater than standard Weldmesh or larger mesh systems.
In addition our Rebound fencing offers a better ball rebound
action and combines security with aesthetics appeal.
Providing a sufficiently durable yet attractive fencing system that
will last for many years, without the costs of continuous repair, is
often less expensive than systems with lower initial outlay. Where the budget does not allow for the best specification we
offer an alternative range of sports fencing systems. For full details
please contact our sales department.
CURVED CORNERS Curved corners have many
advantages, not least when it
comes to clearing up litter, fallen
leaves and other debris.
They are also far more user
friendly in a game situation
especially when two opposing
players are trying to take control
of the ball.
ROUND POSTS Our fencing is supplied with
88.9mm CHS posts as
standard increasing in size
to 114.5mm CHS on heights
of 4.0m and 5.0m high
fencing and 168.3mm on
6.0m high.
Round posts due to their
shape have no sharp angles
minimising injury and
damage to clothing. Fencing is available in heights from 1.1m up to 6.0m high.
TRANSITIONAL PANELS Transitional panels are designed to make stepping down
in height look good.
Transitional panels can be
incorporated into all heights of fencing for full flexibility.
SQUARE POSTS For court areas where
users want a higher quality
of play and are playing off
the fence then a “True Ball
Rebound” is required. Our
fencing posts can be
changed to 100mm SHS
square posts so that the
Rebound panels sit flush
with the post. For goal
posts we recommend our
standard round posts for
safety. Fencing is available in heights from 1.1m up to 6.0m high.
CRANKED TOPS
Whilst the general wish is for unlimited open space, the
truth is that often good quality open spaces are few and
far between. When the area surrounding a multi use
games area is built up and the external environment
dictates the need for the fencing to both contain the ball
and act as a security fence, Steelway Fensecure Rebound
fencing can incorporate cranked extension arms to make
climbing that much more difficult.

ACOUSTIC TESTING
In August 2000 we appointed an independent
consulting engineer who conducted an on site
acoustic test on one of our installed Multi Use
Games Areas. The results indicated that so called
“Acoustic Dampers” were un-necessary and
largely ineffective. Their advice concentrated on
ensuring that the fittings stayed tight. Steelway
have now incorporated their advice into our
design process and now use a special locking
mechanism, which reduces the risk of fittings
coming loose. This area of research and
development has provided us with an accurate
insight into how acoustically friendly our Multi
Use Games Areas are.
