Why choose a wire fence for your property?
Installing a wire fence meets a need for security while maintaining an aesthetic, functional, and durable solution. Its adaptability makes this fence a reliable choice for many configurations.
An economical and functional solution
The wire fence is one of the most affordable systems on the market. It offers effective protection with a low investment while ensuring good durability over time.
Adaptation to all terrains
Flexible or rigid, the wire fence can be installed on flat, sloped, uneven, or curved terrains. It perfectly conforms to the site's topography without requiring major work.
Minimal maintenance
Galvanized or plastic-coated wire withstands weather, corrosion, and UV rays very well. No specific treatment is required after installation.
Quick and modular installation
Installing a wire fence is faster than installing a masonry or solid panel fence. It can also be easily dismantled or modified if necessary.
A discreet integration into the landscape
Transparent or semi-opaque depending on the model, the wire fence is visually discreet. It allows for security without enclosure, keeping an openness to the environment.

Our installation method follows a precise protocol, ensuring a solid, straight installation that meets local requirements. Each project is customized.
The different types of wire fences available
There are several models of wire fences, each meeting specific needs. Avenir Rénovations helps you choose the one that best suits your property, budget, and usage.
Made of twisted wire rolls, it is ideal for agricultural land, natural areas, or animal enclosures. Its flexibility allows it to conform to the curves of the ground.
Made of welded and reinforced panels, it offers better stability and enhanced security. It is recommended for homes, schools, or professional buildings.
Covered with a layer of colored PVC, it combines durability and aesthetics. It is more resistant to external aggression and comes in several shades to harmoniously blend into the garden.
This combination features a masonry base and a wire section for added strength. It is often used in urban areas to reinforce boundaries without obstructing the view.
Privacy kits (PVC slats, reed screens, plant panels) can be added to the rigid fencing to maintain your privacy. This option is customizable according to your needs.

The advantages of a wire fence in the French-speaking part of Switzerland
In a context where winters can be harsh and municipal regulations demanding, wire fencing offers a reliable, lightweight solution that complies with local constraints. Its low cost makes it a widely used solution in the Romandy cantons.
Resistance to local weather conditions
The wire fences installed by Avenir Rénovations are designed to withstand heavy rain, frost, wind, and UV rays. They maintain their shape and strength without rust or deformation.
Ideal for long lengths
If you need to fence a large area, wire fencing allows you to cover several dozen or even hundreds of linear meters at a controlled cost. It is the ideal solution for agricultural land, industrial zones, or spacious gardens.
Compatibility with gates and portals
Wire systems can be complemented by rigid gates or sliding gates. The overall appearance remains visually and technically homogeneous.
A good compromise between visibility and security
Rigid or fine mesh fencing protects your space while maintaining the view to the outside. It is perfectly suited for gardens or residences wishing to keep an open aspect.
Why choose Avenir Rénovations for your wire fence?
Installing a wire fence may seem simple but requires real expertise to ensure its strength, perfect alignment, and durability. Our experienced teams provide the necessary expertise.
A comprehensive feasibility study
Before any installation, we conduct a free technical visit of your land. This allows us to assess slopes, access, soil type, potential obstacles, and constraints related to shared boundaries.
Custom support
We advise you on the type of fencing, the ideal height, the choice of posts, reinforcement options, and compatible gates. Each project is tailored to your needs.
Installation compliant with Swiss standards
Our technicians master installation techniques with concrete sealing or plates, proper tensioning of the fencing, installation of posts at the correct depth, and precise alignment of panels.
Durable and certified materials
We use galvanized, plastic-coated, or stainless steel wire, selected for their robustness. The posts and fasteners are also treated to withstand the test of time.
Local regulations in the French-speaking part of Switzerland for wire fence installation
Before starting the installation of a wire fence, it is imperative to comply with the local regulations in force. These vary from one municipality to another and depend on several factors.
Authorization or prior declaration
The majority of cantons require authorization for any fence over 1.20 meters or visible from the public road. Agricultural or non-masonry fences may sometimes be exempt. Avenir Rénovations will inform you and prepare your file if necessary.
Respect for distances and property boundaries
The fence must not encroach on neighboring property or public land. It is advisable to maintain a setback of at least 50 cm from the boundary line, unless agreed with the neighbor. A boundary survey may be required in case of doubt.
Height regulations
Allowed heights are generally from 1.20 to 2 meters depending on the type of fence, the location (urban or rural), and proximity to the road. A check with your municipality is essential to avoid any disputes or refusals of authorization.
Cantonal or heritage specificities
In protected areas, agricultural zones, or classified sites, some municipalities impose specific materials, colors, or shapes. Wire fencing is often accepted as long as it remains discreet and does not disrupt the architectural harmony.
FAQ – Installation of Wire Fencing
A wire fence, although simple in appearance, raises many technical questions. Here are the answers to the most common inquiries from our clients before the work begins.
What is the lifespan of a wire fence?
On average, a quality wire fence can last between 15 and 30 years. Galvanized or plastic-coated wire withstands the elements well, provided it is properly installed and maintained.
Is it possible to add a privacy screen to a wire fence?
Yes, especially on rigid fences. Privacy kits made of PVC slats, wood, or composite can be added to maintain your privacy, even after the initial installation.
Can a wire fence be installed on a sloped terrain?
Yes. Flexible wire easily adapts to elevation changes. Rigid wire can also be installed in steps or with gradual slopes using posts of different heights.
Is a permit required to install a wire fence?
This depends on the municipality and the height of the fence. Generally, a fence under 1.2 meters does not require permission. Beyond that, a declaration or permit is often required. We assist you with the necessary procedures.
Is a wire fence secure against intrusions?
Rigid wire, especially with tight mesh and reinforcements at the top of the panel, offers good deterrent security. For sensitive areas, it can be complemented with additional security accessories.
Is it possible to attach a gate or a portal to wire fencing?
Yes, our solutions easily integrate suitable gates and portals with reinforced frames. They can be manual or motorized according to your preferences.
