Pro Fence Completes Smoker Pads at Dynacraft
Secondhand smoke isn’t for everyone (or anyone). So we put our minds together with Abel Construction’s design team to configure a secure area for smoker’s to get outside the walls of the facility. This included wall mounted ornamental fencing, 2 turn stiles, and 2 ADA gates. These access-controlled installs include a badge-in/free-exit concept for security and emergencies.

One of our CORE VALUES that we believe separates us is that We Welcome Challenges. When Abel Construction approached us about possible designs & solutions for Dynacraft, we jumped at the opportunity to creatively help them get this area secured from start to install.

What we’re building…
Louisville Zoo Perimeter Gate Replacement
Free tip from the Pro’s: Don’t run into operated cantilever gates with vehicles while they’re opening. Waiting for it to open is significantly more pleasant than having to wait for a new gate to be fabricated. Fortunately, we were able to expedite the fabrication of this replacement gate and mitigate what little damage occurred to the operator when a vendor’s vehicle struck the old gate. Now, she’s rolling smoothly and much shinier than ever before.
Terex J-Town Perimeter
This month we completed exterior fencing for the new Terex facility in J-Town including 1,375’ of 7’ chain link with barbed wire, 75’ of 8’ wooden privacy fencing with 2 gates, a 20’ cantilever gate, and 3 panic gates. We also installed posts and framework for a dumpster pad.

Caliber Collision - LaGrange
When a neighbor moves in, you welcome them. Since Caliber Collision moved in next door to our worldwide headquarters, we partnered with them to get their lot fenced in with 608’ of 6’ black vinyl coated chain link fence with semi-privacy slats. This project included a 26’ double-drive gate, bottom-rail, and closer post spacing to strengthen the final product.

FENCE FACTS: What’s the deal with snow fence?
Look, it’s winter. Not technically, yet. But it snowed in Louisville last weekend, so… it’s winter. So, what exactly is the point of snow fence?
Snow fence is typically used to help collect snow drifts at a desired spot such as roadways, farms (to create or preserve drinking/irrigation areas), or at ski-resorts to create ski trails and prevent avalanches. The same concept is even used on beaches with sand.
Thankfully in Louisville, we don’t require snow fencing for those reasons, but we do have use it for quick/cheap crowd control or to block off areas on jobsites. While we do have plenty of snow fence onhand, a better option is temporary fence panels. They’re bigger, stronger, and super versatile.
Does your jobsite or event need a temporary fence solution?
