Why We Don’t Recommend Colorbond Above 2300mm

While taller fences can be built, Crawfords Fencing generally does not recommend standard Colorbond fencing above 2300mm overall height.

As fence height increases, so does wind loading.

The additional surface area places significantly greater pressure on the fence system and can lead to increased movement during high winds.

Where greater heights are required, engineered alternatives may be more suitable depending on the application.

Genuine Colorbond Steel Matters

Not all steel fencing products are the same.

At Crawfords Fencing, we proudly use fencing manufactured by Metroll using genuine Australian-made COLORBOND® steel.

We’ve chosen Metroll because of their consistent quality, proven manufacturing standards and trusted reputation within the Australian building industry.

Quality materials combined with professional installation produce a fence designed to perform for years to come.

Why We Use 65mm End Posts

One characteristic of Colorbond fencing that many homeowners don’t realise is that it behaves as a harmonic system.

Because every sheet is connected through the top and bottom rails, when strong winds push on one section, the movement can transfer through the entire fence run, creating a wave-like or “snake” effect.

At Crawfords Fencing, we help minimise this by installing 65mm powder-coated steel end posts at the beginning and end of every fence run.

These larger end posts provide stronger anchor points, giving the fence the best possible grounding and helping reduce movement throughout the system during strong winds.

Combined with correct footing depths, quality concrete and professional installation, this creates a stronger, more stable fence designed for Australian conditions.

Built for Australian Conditions

Every Colorbond fence we build is designed with long-term performance in mind.

We consider:

  • Wind exposure.

  • Soil conditions.

  • Post depth.

  • Concrete footings.

  • Fence height.

  • Ground levels.

  • Long-term durability.

A quality fence starts below ground, and every component plays a role in its performance.

Why Choose Crawfords Fencing?

At Crawfords Fencing, we don’t just install Colorbond fences—we build complete fencing systems designed to last.

Our attention to detail, quality materials and commitment to proper installation have made us one of Melbourne’s trusted fencing contractors.

As Director Tyrone Crawford often says:

“A Colorbond fence isn’t just sheets and posts—it’s a complete system. When every component works together, you end up with a fence that’s built to stand the test of time.”
