The Importance of Using the Right Kind of Custom Wire Mesh Fencing

Wire mesh fencing is now used in various application across the marketplace. For example, companies are using the product to protect their machines and to safeguard staircases. But finding the right kind of custom wire mesh for your particular application is of critical importance. In this latest post, our experts explain the value in carefully choosing the right kind of wire mesh.
  • Visibility
A leading consideration in choosing custom wire mesh systems is achieving full visibility into the are behind the fencing. This is particularly important, for example, in protecting animals such as livestock. Farmers need to see that their livestock is healthy and so require custom wire mesh built to the right size and with the ideal size opening to allow visual access.
  • Tensile strength
While most wire mesh will provide you with superior strength compared with similar fencing products, individual materials can have a higher tensile strength and therefore require due consideration. Evaluate the tensile strength of the range of products available and make sure it suits the fencing application. In cases where the fencing must protect machines from impact, the highest possible tensile strength is required, in addition to optimal durability.
  • Fit within the space
The fit within the space provided by the custom wire mesh is another leading consideration. Make sure that the custom wire mesh chosen has been designed so that it fits seamlessly within your environment. Otherwise, you may experience issues with holes appearing in the mesh and problems with part of the mesh not providing structural stability.

Tips for Using Custom Wire Mesh to Create Barriers

The quality of the barriers used within your buildings is a key consideration when evaluating structural additions. Our expert team at California Wire Products has spent decades perfecting the use of custom wire mesh to resolve many of the leading barrier-related challenges our clients face. In this new post, we’re offering several tips for using custom wire mesh to create healthier barriers in your facilities.

Use wire mesh for parking facilities
Enabling optimal airflow is an important consideration when building parking facilities. It’s important to both vent exhaust fumes and prevent the environment from becoming clouded with potentially hazardous chemicals. Our team at California Wire Products offers custom wire mesh systems for parking areas in commercial buildings. These systems allow for optimal ventilation without the need for mechanical additions to the property. This ensures a healthier space while allowing the organization to reap the benefit in terms of lower energy costs.

Make shelter a priority
Health and safety is another leading consideration when evaluating building barriers. Make sure that you harness wire mesh that has been designed to provide optimal protection from the elements and any debris that has the potential to fall on visitors. Metal mesh products effectively protect visitors from the wind and the rain in parking structures, allowing for the ideal experience for those visiting the property.

Bring in the light
Make sure that your custom wire mesh products are designed so that you can bring in the light to the building. The studies show that buildings with more light create a happier workforce and allow for a more productive working environment. This might involve using a mesh metal structural barrier rather than a solid metal fence that blocks light in key working and transit areas of the property.

The Superior Performance of Custom Welded Wire Mesh

Welded wire mesh is now used within a range of applications across the country and by companies within a number of different industries. The performance of custom welded wire mesh is the leading reason behind its popular use. Within our latest post, we’re explaining more about how companies are achieving the ideal level of performance with the use of custom welded wire mesh systems.
Inherently stronger than woven mesh
Many companies are now harnessing custom welded wire mesh because the material is inherently stronger than woven products. The tensile strength of the material means its ideal for security applications such as when it’s used for creating security lockers within a business. Employees can rest assured that the welded wire mesh system will protect against break-ins and theft due to its material strength.
Compliance
A leading consideration, particularly within security applications related to the Federal government, is compliance standards. Working with custom welded wire mesh is the best way to ensure that your facility conforms to the standards required within your industry. The latest welded wire mesh systems are designed to meet all security standards set by the DEA for example, within their drug storage standards. The use of wire cages helps keep evidence secure.
Flexibility
One of the foremost reasons companies now turn to the latest welded wire mesh products is their flexibility for a range of applications. The flexibility of the product means, for example, it can be used in fencing applications in which wire must be carefully welded to prevent objects from dropping between railings. The flexibility of the welded wire mesh also means it’s ideal for use in challenging applications where space is limited or doesn’t fit a traditional shape. Wire mesh can be modified to fit the specifications of the unique project and to deliver optimal performance regardless of the environment.
Simple installation
Companies are continually looking to conserve costs when it comes to the installation of their wire mesh systems. Welded wire mesh is ideal in this regard because it can help firms to achieve the ideal simple installation required to streamline their projects. The integration of custom wire mesh can be completed in minutes and can ensure optimal performance for the application.
Affordability
Another clear benefit to working with welded wire mesh is the affordability the product offers in comparison with woven wire mesh. Welded wire mesh is a significantly more cost-effective product to integrate and therefore won’t require a large slice of the building improvement budget for companies working with tight parameters. Companies can save money both in terms of their initial investment and in building maintenance when working with welded wire mesh.
Considerations for choosing welded wire mesh products
Now that you have a clearer idea about the qualities of welded wire mesh, it’s important to review the considerations for choosing specific market products. Our team at California Wire Products has decades of experience in this area of the marketplace, and below we’re showcasing a few of the more important purchase considerations:
  • The manufacturer’s experience
Make sure you choose a manufacturer with years of proven experience in the industry. The manufacturer should be able to harness their experience to highlight several market options and adeptly guide you in making your purchase decision. When speaking with the manufacturer make sure you ask them a number of questions about the options available in the industry, and the value these options can provide. If you don’t receive clear answers, you might look elsewhere for quality products
  • Plan all costs
When discussing a custom wire mesh project, make sure you discuss all cost-related elements well ahead of purchase. For example, how much will it cost to maintain the system in the years ahead? Are their installation costs associated with the project? Do you need a warranty for the product? Review these considerations and make sure you have a full breakdown of all relevant costs.
  • The customization process
What will the customization process look like and what are your expectations? Review the process in detail so you know exactly what the options are and how these options might impact the project. A common challenge for many companies is when they order a custom product built for their building, only to discover a small challenge makes the system infeasible. For example, you might build a welded wire mesh cage for your work team, only to find that the cage has to be moved to a smaller room that requires a smaller sized cage.
  • Scalability
One of the key benefits of working with welded wire mesh systems is their scalability. You can add to the number of cages in your building or to the railing when you increase the length of the staircase on your commercial property. Ensure you take into consideration the full benefit of scalability when choosing your welded wire mesh product. What impact do you see the project having on the building and how can this impact be capitalized upon in the years ahead? Carefully consider these questions when investing in a welded wire mesh product.

THE APPLICATIONS FOR SECURITY PARTITIONS AND WIRE STORAGE CAGES

It’s an area to which many companies don’t give their full focus. Wire storage cages and security partitions must be designed according to the highest standards for durability to mitigate the potential loss of product and to provide your team with a safe working environment. In this latest post, we’ll explore more about the potential applications for security partitions and wire storage cages.
 
Storage of personal belongings
One of the leading options for using wire storage cages is the storage of personal belongings on a busy site. The wire cages work to prevent access to those outside the area while ensuring that the owners of the belongings can see directly into the cage for clear visibility of their items.
 
Separating working spaces
Within a busy manufacturing plant, one area of the company might be focused on metalwork while another might be focused purely on putting components together within the box. Using wire security partitions can help to separate the working spaces so that teams can clearly identify their fellow coworkers and to minimize potential contamination of the working space.
 
Network server protection
Many companies are now installing security partitions around their networked servers to help minimize the potential for a person to interfere with the system. With so much data being stored on the equipment, it’s important that servers are protected around the clock, and using wire storage cages can help to mitigate this issue and keep both the equipment and the data secure.
 
Safe storage of hazardous items
Items that are deemed hazardous or must be separated from other products for safety reasons, such as pharmaceuticals, can be kept in secure wire storage cages to which only authorized personnel have access. For many industries, this level of security is mandatory, and so it’s important to work with regulators to determine the type of hazardous item storage required in your facility.
 
Our team at California Wire Products has great experience crafting custom wire storage cages for clients across the marketplaces. To learn more about our company and the full range of products we offer, please call us today.

THE BENEFITS OF CUSTOM DESIGNED WIRE STORAGE CAGES

Many companies are now utilizing woven and welded wire mesh storage cages because of the durability the material provides. Our team at California Wire Products has great experience designing and building wire storage cages, and in this new post, we’ll explain a little more about the benefits of the custom designing process.

Achieve tamper-proof security
Wire storage cages provide you with tamper-proof security for a range of applications. For example, if you’re using the wire to create storage lockers, you can ensure your employees’ belongings are safe from tampering and completely protected during the working day
.
Creating secure working areas
Working with the latest custom designed wire storage systems ensures your team has access to secure working areas. They know that their belongings and important company tools are going to be safe within the storage cage, and so they can feel comfortable in and around the space.

Clear visibility
Another one of the clear benefits of using wire storage cages is that you can achieve clear visibility into the area from the outside. Rather than having to physically open a locked door to find out about the current location of your belongings, you can see directly into the cage. This helps save time during security checks and ensures any investigative work can begin the moment an item is stolen from inside the cage.

Relocatable
When operating a busy working space, it’s important that your storage systems can easily be moved from one location to another. A great benefit of choosing custom designed wire storage cages is that they offer portability within your business. You can move the cages easily from one location to another to provide additional security and to ensure each space in the facility is utilized to its full potential.

THE WIRE INDUSTRY HELPING CLIENTS INTEGRATE QUALITY WIRE STORAGE CAGES

Across many industries, wire storage cages are now built to provide the highest levels of security. Our team at California Wire Products has decades of experience building quality wire storage cages for our clientele, and within our latest post, we’re highlighting how wire industry experts play a role in the development of new wire storage cages.

Quality of the wire is the most important element
In deciding which wire storage cages to add to their facilities, many organizations are now reviewing the various types of wire available. Two of the leading options are welded wire mesh and woven wire mesh, which each offer several benefits when used in building wire storage cages.

Welded wire mesh
Welded wire mesh is designed for affordability and flexibility. The product retains its strength under an impact and is designed to absorb the power so that the wire cage can offer the highest levels of security for the client.

Woven wire mesh
Companies are now using woven wire mesh products in applications where the circulation of hot and cold air is of the utmost priority within the secured space. Woven wire mesh products are also double crimped and securely interwoven to create a highly secure and stable product designed for long-term security performance.

The mistakes made when choosing wire storage cages
One of the most important elements to consider when evaluating wire storage cages and the full range of options in the marketplace is the mistakes others have made in this process. Many companies go into the marketplace without a clear understanding of the products and materials available and this leads to them making some of the following mistakes:
· Choosing based on brand reputation alone
The reputation of the brand is a key consideration when selecting storage cages, but it shouldn’t be the only element you consider. Make sure the company offers the ideal product for your application and ask them to provide you with information about the specific products and their performance over many years.
· Not reviewing total cost
The total cost for the wire storage cages shouldn’t be the only or leading consideration when evaluating the options. But many companies focus on the long-term rather than the total cost, and this can mean they spend more than required for their storage system. Work with the manufacturer to assess all the options and make sure you get all the documentation before you move forward with the process. Taking your time at this stage can help you to save significant money on the total purchase cost for the wire product.
· Failing to consider the environment
The environment in which your storage cages should be used is a leading element to take into consideration when buying the latest products. Many companies fail to consider the temperature and the humidity within the space and these elements can play a significant role in the material’s performance within the application. When speaking with manufacturers, make sure you find out as much as possible about their cages and how well the material will hold up within your storage area.

The important considerations for choosing wire storage cages
Now that you know a little more about the material options that will be available to you when choosing wire storage cages, let’s review the other important considerations to make during the buying process.
· Experience of the company
The experience of the manufacturing company should be one of the leading elements you take into full consideration when buying wire storage cages. Has the company got the required experience to provide you with a return on investment? Review the company’s past performance in the industry and determine whether their experience matches your requirements in terms of quality.
· Application
What is the application for the wire storage cages? You should have a clear understanding of the type of application for which the cage will be used. This will help you in communicating with your chosen manufacturer and moving forward with the buying process. The application for the product will determine the required level of durability and the flexibility that might be needed. For example, some wire storage cages within the animal care field must be designed to prevent the animal from biting and clawing their way out of the cage. In such cases, material durability and tensile strength are a foremost consideration.
· The integration processes
Another important consideration is the integration process. How easily can the cage product be integrated within your building? Make sure that you understand the integration process and the time that the integration process will take. The downtime associated with the integration process can be costly to the company, and so it’s important that you understand how the product blends within the building.
