Parking barriers as an alternative to fencing

Parking barriers as a good and elegant alternative for enclosing residential areas

Walking through the newly built parts of larger cities, one might get the impression that we have recently fallen in love with fencing off green areas and have let ourselves be swept away by some fashion that we don't quite know where it came from. In our culture, unlike in Anglo-Saxon countries, for example, people traditionally fenced off their homes, leaving multi-family buildings, i.e. blocks of flats, unfenced. Nowadays, every new housing estate has to be fenced off and, of course, closed with a motorised gate. Because, after all, it's instantly more prestigious and, of course, safer....

We invite you to take a look at our range of fences and gates, in particular our offer for road barriers

These are the arguments put forward by proponents of fencing and fences themselves. Is this approach the right one? Does everyone like the fact that you can't take a shortcut anywhere any more, but have to wade through this tangle of fences? And also that these fences should be some kind of decoration for the buildings themselves or be more symbolic, i.e. not so high, just so that no stranger's dog can get on our lawn with impunity. Unfortunately, most often it is a panel fence or a typical mesh fence, which does not decorate but actually disfigures.

What can we do to meet the expectations of the modern customer and ensure their safety on the one hand, and on the other hand to ensure that this unfortunate fence of ours does not disfigure? Maybe it is worth thinking about an alternative to the fence and installing, for example, a parking barrier or an automatic parking lock that extends from underground? Nowadays, all parking automation components can be purchased in different colours, for example in grey. You can find barriers in this colour at Beninca or Came. So it won't be a problem to make the barrier itself and the automation match the surrounding building and the overall architecture. On the other hand, plant a hedge, hornbeam or other plant around the building that can mimic a fence or dispense with building fencing altogether. Prevent unauthorised entry by installing a barrier.
There are many solutions that are probably much cheaper than a traditional fence, even one made of panels (bear in mind the size of the area to be enclosed). You just need to not be closed off to new solutions such as parking barriers.
