Gate latches, hinges, tension wire and small-quantity chain wire for Taigum's townhouse courtyards and family homes.
More than half of Taigum's homes are townhouses, so most fencing supplies in Taigum jobs are small: a courtyard gate latch, a hinge, a short length of mesh or tension wire to stop a small dog escaping. We sell small-quantity fencing supplies as readily as bulk orders, from our Geebung outlet a short drive south along Beams Road. Our workshop can also make supply-only courtyard gates to fit your opening. Call or visit for fencing supplies in Taigum.

Townhouses outnumber houses in Taigum. Owners and tenants usually need one or two parts to make a courtyard safe for kids or pets. We stock courtyard gate hardware and fence fittings, and sell chain wire by the metre. We can also make gates to size.
A courtyard fence is short, but it works hard. The gate swings open many times a day for bins, prams and the dog's walk. When a latch fails or a gap opens under the mesh, you want the right part quickly, and you rarely want a whole roll of anything. That's where our fencing supplies in Taigum fit. We sell the one part you need, and fencing supplies in Taigum for larger house blocks sit on the same shelves.
Small orders are normal for us. Fencing supplies in Taigum are often a latch or a pair of hinges, and we'll help you find the right one. Bring the old part or a photo, and we'll match it from our range of gate latches and hinges.
Our Geebung workshop also makes gates to fit tight courtyard openings. If your gate is twisted, rusted or an odd width, we can build a replacement to your measurements, with a 48-hour turnaround available. Advice comes from a team with more than 90 years of combined experience making and installing fences.
The outlet is a short drive away, with free on-site parking, so fencing supplies in Taigum are easy to collect on the way home. Delivery across Brisbane covers anything too big for the car.
These lines cover the fencing materials Taigum townhouse owners ask for most. Many fencing supplies in Taigum orders are small enough to carry out of the shop by hand. Fencing supplies in Taigum can be collected from Geebung or delivered.
Most courtyard gate problems come down to one worn part. We stock courtyard gate hardware including gate latches and hinges, plus the fittings that hold them in place. Bring the old latch or a clear photo and we'll match it, so the new part lines up with the existing holes. If the gate is part of a pool barrier, choose a latch that self-latches every time.
Best for: townhouse owners and tenants
Explore gate frames and hardwareWhen a courtyard gate is bent, rusted or dragging on the paving, a new gate is often the simpler fix. Our workshop makes supply-only courtyard gates to fit your opening, in chain wire or as a steel frame that takes timber palings to match a paling fence. Measure the opening at the top and bottom and tell us the hinge side.
Best for: replacing worn courtyard gates
Explore gate frames and hardwareSmall dogs find the gaps. Our pet-proofing materials include tension wire, tie wire and chain wire mesh to close the space under a fence or along a loose edge. Run tension wire along the base, tie the mesh to it at close intervals, and the bottom edge stays tight to the ground. We'll show you how at the counter.
Best for: small dogs in courtyards
View fence accessoriesThe chain wire supplies Taigum customers buy from us come in the length they need, so you don't pay for a full roll to patch one panel. Choose galvanised to match an older fence, or black PVC-coated for a neater look in a small courtyard. Owners of larger house blocks can buy longer runs, along with posts and fittings.
Best for: courtyard repairs and larger yards

Taigum has 3,262 private dwellings (ABS 2021), and 51.3 per cent are townhouses or semi-detached homes. So more than half the suburb lives with a courtyard or small yard. The median age is 40. Most of the housing is recent by Brisbane standards: the population was 769 in 1976 and reached 6,453 by 2001.
Courtyard fences are short runs with a lot of traffic. Gates open and close all day for bins, prams and pets, so latches wear and hinges drop. Gaps under the mesh appear where soil washes away in heavy rain, and Brisbane's wettest months run from December to March. In a townhouse complex, fences and gates may also be common property, so check your by-laws before you change them.
A courtyard gate that doesn't latch is a safety risk for young children, especially next to a shared driveway. A small gap under a fence is enough for a small dog to slip out. If a gate forms part of a pool barrier, the rules are strict: gates must self-close and self-latch, and the gap under the barrier can be no more than 100 mm.
We keep fencing supplies in Taigum simple. Tell us what's wrong, show us a photo, and we'll sell you the part that fixes it. Most DIY fence repairs in a courtyard need a latch, a hinge, some tension wire or a short piece of mesh. For bigger jobs, fencing supplies in Taigum also include made-to-size gates and full runs of chain wire.

These are the faults Taigum owners bring to our counter most. The right fencing supplies in Taigum fix most of them in an afternoon. Ask about fencing supplies in Taigum for yours.
Latches wear out with daily use, and hinges drop over time. The gate sags until the latch no longer lines up with the catch.
A gate that swings open lets toddlers or pets wander into a shared driveway. If the gate is part of a pool barrier, it must self-close and self-latch.
Check the hinges first. If the gate has dropped, replace the hinges, then fit a new latch at the right height. Bring the old parts in and we'll match them.
Signs to watch for: a gate you have to lift to close, or a latch that needs a second push.
Soil washes away along the base in heavy rain, or the bottom edge of the mesh was never tied down firmly. Small dogs soon find the gap.
In a townhouse complex, an escaped dog can end up among reversing cars in a shared driveway, or in a neighbour's courtyard.
Add tension wire along the bottom of the fence and tie the mesh to it at close intervals. Fill any hollows in the soil. Our pet-proofing materials are sold in small quantities, so you buy only what the job needs.
A dog chewing at one place, a bike leaning on the fence or a branch in a storm can tear a small section of chain wire.
Small tears spread as the wires unravel, and a hole at pet height soon becomes an escape route.
Patch the section with matching mesh. We sell galvanised and black PVC-coated chain wire by the metre, with tie wire to join the patch to the existing fence. Measure the damaged area and add a margin on each side.
Signs to watch for: loose wire ends, or a bulge where something has pushed through.

Get a Supply QuoteYes. We sell single latches and hinges, a handful of fittings or a metre of tension wire. Small-quantity fencing supplies are a big part of what townhouse owners buy from us, and there's no minimum order. Bring the old latch or a photo so we can match the size and style. If you're not sure how to fit it, ask us at the counter.
Possibly. In many townhouse complexes, fences and gates between courtyards and common property fall under the body corporate. Check your by-laws, or ask your body corporate manager, before you replace a gate or change a fence. Ask too whether like-for-like repairs, such as swapping a broken latch, need approval. We can supply parts that match the existing ones so the complex stays consistent.
Yes. Our Geebung workshop makes supply-only courtyard gates to fit your opening. We make chain wire gates and steel frames that take timber palings. Measure the opening width at the top and bottom, note the height and the hinge side, and send us a photo. A 48-hour turnaround is available on custom gates, and we'll supply matching hinges and a latch.
Start at the base of the fence. Run tension wire along the bottom and tie the mesh to it firmly, so there's no loose edge to push under. Fill any hollows in the soil. Check the gate too, since a gap under it is a common escape point. Our fencing supplies in Taigum include all the pet-proofing materials for this job, sold in small quantities.
Yes. We deliver across Brisbane, including Taigum. For a latch or a set of hinges, most people find it quicker to collect from our Geebung outlet, which has free on-site parking. Delivery is handy for gates, rolls of mesh and posts. Give us your address and order, and we'll tell you the cost and arrangements before you pay.
Taigum's name comes from an Aboriginal word for lawyer cane. The area was subdivided around 1853, but most of its growth came much later. The population rose from 769 in 1976 to 1,148 in 1981, 3,550 in 1991 and 6,453 in 2001. Taigum Square opened in 1982 and was expanded in 2001. Today more than half the suburb's homes are townhouses, and their courtyard fences and gates need parts from time to time. Sureline Fencing started in Northgate in 1996 and has worked from Geebung since 2006. We provide fencing supplies in Taigum from our outlet there.
Fencing supplies in Taigum are sold from our Geebung outlet at 39 Basalt St, with delivery available.
