Pursaklar Fencing Systems and Plot Perimeters

In a newly built-up area the boundary comes first, the fence second

Pursaklar is developing quickly. New parcels are being opened up, estates are going up and land that stood empty for years is turning into buildings one plot at a time. That pace makes an ordinary detail critical when it comes to fencing: the boundary has to be genuinely established before any run is set out.

On newly opened parcels the neighbour's boundary is usually not marked by anything physical. A run that is not based on the cadastral survey may have to come down a few years later, once the neighbour starts building. So the first job here is not choosing a product; it is marking the corner points out on the ground.

Once the boundary is clear the second question follows: is this run meant to be permanent, or will a temporary answer do until the building work is finished? What you decide changes the product outright.

Another situation we meet often here is a parcel that will stand idle for a while. On land bought as an investment and not yet due for building, the expectation is different: the aim is neither privacy nor appearance, only to head off unauthorised use and fly-tipping. On parcels like that a plain, low-maintenance run makes far more sense than an expensive one that will be pulled out and replaced when building finally starts.

Closing off the site while the building work goes on

Putting up a permanent fence while building work is still running is usually money lost. Heavy vehicle traffic, excavation and material movement wear the run out, and part of it has to be renewed once the job is done. What does the job at this stage is fencing that can be dismantled and moved.

Temporary fence is made up of panels on feet, so it needs no permanent fixing into the ground; it is extended as the working area grows and gathered up when the job ends. For steering pedestrians and vehicles, construction site safety barrier suits better; it draws a visible line along the kerb or at the entry and exit points.

The thing most often overlooked with temporary fencing is wind. Panels on feet with sheeting or netting stretched over them take the entire wind load, and they go over the moment they are left unballasted. If the line is going to be sheeted, the weight of the feet has to be planned around that.

The weakest part of a temporary run is its entrance. At the point where lorries and mixers come in and out the panels are opened and closed all day, so the fixings there tire quickly. Putting the entrance at the point closest to the manoeuvring area inside the site, rather than on the least used side of the run, takes some of that wear away.

Moving from temporary fencing to a permanent run

When the building work ends, the temporary answer gives way to a permanent run. At this stage the choice follows the final use of the parcel. If it is to be the garden of a house, the system has to draw a boundary and look right at the same time; on a plot that will stay empty, the only priority is keeping people out.

For residential use panel fence is the usual preference. It stands up on its own, it allows a screening layer to be added later, and it goes up quickly along straight lines, all of which suits the new parcels in the area.

Setting the post positions correctly from the outset makes the changeover easier. The post points of the permanent run do not have to follow the line of the temporary fencing used during construction; the run should be set out again once the landscaping and the entrance layout are settled.

Dividing lines in estate and block common areas

The blocks and gated estates going up in the area put internal divisions on the agenda alongside the parcel boundary. Green space between blocks, parking, play areas and plant rooms usually sit inside the same parcel but serve quite different purposes.

On these internal lines the aim is not to keep the outside out but to keep the uses apart. A lower height is therefore enough; a line that does not block sightlines keeps the area easy to supervise.

Where the decision rests with the management company, the process has to start with the measurements. A quotation drawn up without listing the perimeter lengths around each block, the crossing points and the number of gates rarely holds up on site. On new estates the landscaping is not finished yet, so planning the line together with the landscaping design reduces the need for changes later.

Another detail on recently handed-over blocks is that the ground has not settled. Fill placed during construction drops a little over the first few years, and a post set into it can lean with time. Where fill is known about, deepening the post hole and keeping the concrete generous saves the trouble of straightening the run a few years down the line.

Runs where housing backs onto farmland

There is still farmland around Pursaklar, and some parcels back directly onto fields. What these runs need is different from fencing inside a housing plot: the line is long, the ground is earth and uneven, and access is mostly by vehicle.

On long lines the post spacing and the tension count for more than the choice of product. Where the ground is loose the posts go deeper; at the corners a braced solution keeps the line straight.

For vehicle access a field gate remains the sensible answer on runs of this kind. The wide opening lets a tractor or a pick-up through, and the plain construction keeps maintenance down on earth ground. Planning the leaf to swing with the slope rather than against it stops it dragging on the ground.

Taking measurements on an empty parcel

Measuring a plot with nothing built on it is more misleading than measuring a garden. The eye misjudges distance and the parcel looks smaller than it really is. So the running meters should not be guessed at; they should be taken by walking between the corner points.

The ground is part of the measurement too. Digging post holes is hard going in rock, while in made ground the posts can settle over time. Those two conditions bear directly on the type of post and the depth chosen; concrete posts give a fixed backbone, particularly on long and exposed lines.

The third thing to record is the direction each side of the run faces. If one side of the parcel looks onto the road and another onto a neighbour, the sides may not call for the same product. Measuring and noting each side on its own gives a far more workable list than a single overall figure.

Because site survey is free within Ankara, taking the measurements together on the ground is the safest route on empty parcels. That way the level difference, the entrance position and the neighbour's boundary are all settled in one visit.

Dispatch, site survey and pricing for Pursaklar

Everything is dispatched from our depot in Ostim. Pursaklar is roughly 20 km away and same-day dispatch can be planned on products held in stock. In newly opened areas, clear directions and an exact position for the parcel help the driver find the place.

Delivery is always charged, including addresses within Ankara. The transport charge is set by the running meters, the volume of the products and whether the vehicle can get onto the parcel. If the road has not been made up yet, the unloading point should be discussed at the outset.

Installation is not a standard service; our teams attend projects of approximately 1000 metres and above. Prices include VAT.
