Established in 2010, First Fence is a UK fencing manufacturer and supplier offering security and temporary fencing, gates, barriers, and construction products, with in-house manufacturing and a growing network of UK depots.
Acrow Props are adjustable steel supports designed for temporary use during construction, renovation, and repair work. They are available in five sizes, from Size 0 to Size 4, so the appropriate prop can be selected according to the required height. The telescopic design allows the height to be adjusted using a pin and threaded collar. On site, they can be used when creating new doorways or windows, removing walls, installing lintels, repairing load-bearing walls, or supporting RSJs and other overhead loads. Because the props can be adjusted and reused, they are useful for a range of building and renovation work where temporary support is required while structural work is being carried out.

First Fence offers installation services for commercial and industrial fencing projects, covering palisade and mesh fencing, safety barriers, gates, site hoarding, and temporary fencing. Its own installation team or approved installers carry out the work, with each project managed by a member of the Install Team. Customers can also book a site survey to discuss their requirements, assess the location, and measure the site before receiving a quotation for supply and installation. First Fence also provides finance options for eligible business customers, including Pay in 3 for UK Limited Businesses and LLPs.
First Fence also provides installation services for domestic projects, with its website stating that its approved installers work across both industrial and domestic applications. Customers can book a site survey to discuss their requirements, consider suitable options, and have the site assessed and measured before receiving a quotation. The company states that its installation service is available for requirements of all sizes. First Fence also offers flexible payment options, including a 10% deposit option. However, the Pay in 3 option is specifically available to UK Limited Businesses and LLPs, so it should not be presented as a finance option for individual DIY customers.
