Considering which fencing to install on your property? Consider Colorbond. While the best fencing is dependent on your requirements, Colorbond fences are specifically designed for Australian terrain – making this fencing a popular choice among fellow landowners. Here’s why Australian fence contractors recommend Colorbond Fencing.
1. It’s built for Australian weather
Colorbond steel is tested to withstand Australian weather conditions, ensuring that it remains intact throughout blazing hot summers and freezing cold winters. Manufactured in Australia, Colorbond steel is also tested in Australia, at outdoor sites which expose it to real Australian weather. The steel is additionally lab-assessed for its durability and susceptibility to corrosion, meaning your Colorbond fence will stand against the wind and hail, and shrug off a dust storm. Over 12,000 Colorbond panels are being tested across Australia right now, ensuring the steel’s continued quality.
2. It’s made to Australian Standards
Sure, you could import a cheaper fence, but it might not be manufactured to Australian Standards. Colorbond steel is guaranteed to meet Australian requirements for strength and grade. Weak steel means your cheaper, outsourced fence is more likely to get chipped, break, or collapse entirely. A Colorbond fence is an investment. Low-quality foreign steel will require more maintenance and will need to be replaced far sooner than its Australian alternative. And it certainly won’t have been tested through an Australian summer.
3. High-quality metallic coating
Colorbond steel is coated with care. It goes through several layers of treatment to protect the fence from corrosion; chipping; flaking; and blistering. Its metallic coating uses the company’s patented Activate technology to fight corrosion. Colorbond’s parent company, BlueScope, is confident in the quality of its technology. Confident enough to increase its warranty periods after the introduction of Activate metallic coating. Which reminds us…
4. Excellent warranty system
Colorbond fences come with various warranty packages, dependent on your warranty application. You can easily receive a warranty by applying through BlueScope’s online Warranty Management System. If you choose the right fencer, they may have a pre-approved warranty for you. Then, you’ll only need to enter your unique warranty activation code at the Blue Scope steel website. Opting for Australian-brand fencing means that you can easily contact the manufacturer if you have any issues or queries about your Colorbond fence – no elusive overseas companies to contend with!
5. It looks good!
As expected from the name Colorbond, these fences come in a range of colours. Fourteen, to be precise. Inspired by the colour palettes of Australian backyards, Colorbond fences are delivered in a range of natural tones, from the dark, steely “Ironstone” to the rich, verdant “Wilderness”.
