What are the differences between barbed wire and guardrail?

May. 21, 2025

I often hear people say that fence products are extremely useful and can be used in various road construction, enclosures, communities, and green space construction. The other type of wire fence is also very useful. Many friends do not know much about the two when choosing products, which often causes unnecessary trouble.


If you want to buy the right product, you must first have a general understanding of the product you choose, and choose the right fence product according to the place of origin and scope of use. The same is true for wire mesh fences. Don't confuse them, so are the two the same? What are the differences? I have summarized some experience for everyone to get familiar with.


1. Features of fences:


Needless to say, fences are more common protective net products, such as railway fences, highway fences, bridge construction, road construction and other fields. They are made of high-quality wire rods and mesh welded together, which is more tough and stable. They are used in isolation and protection, and play a good auxiliary role.


2. Characteristics of wire mesh fence:


Wire mesh fence, which is what we usually refer to as "protective net", is a kind of guardrail net product commonly used on both sides of urban roads. It has an assembled overall frame structure, which is conducive to construction and easy and quick installation. It is mainly used for the protection and protection of equipment and facilities in factories, workshops, warehouses, parking lots, trade areas, public places and other occasions.


In addition, this kind of wire mesh fence has obvious anti-corrosion and durability characteristics. The surface is treated by tempering, spraying, dipping and other processes, and the anti-corrosion function is greatly enhanced.


2. What is the difference between the two meshes:


From the definition scope, wire mesh fence also belongs to guardrail net products, but it belongs to more precise occasions and more characteristics. Wire mesh fence can be processed into a variety of guardrail net products, such as: welded wire mesh, hook wire mesh, crimped wire mesh and many other models; while the use of guardrail net is relatively wide, all of which are railways, bridges, urban greening, and community protection. The size and model are very large, which is one of the products we often see.


In general, wire mesh fences and guardrail nets are both protective products. They have certain advantages in application scenarios. Comprehensive understanding and analysis of needs will allow us to fully understand the relevant characteristics of guardrail net products. Only in this way can the products we purchase play a greater role.
