ABSTRACT:
A safety fencing system is provided which includes a plurality of two-part poles. These poles have a flat edge and a curved edge providing a substantially “D” shape. In the preferred embodiment each flat edge includes a substantially concave portion and a substantially convex portion. These contours nest together when two flat edges are placed adjacent to one another, leaving a curved or round external shape. The nested contours and the flat edges receive a pliable material. These contours assist in “grabbing” the material to prevent it from slippage over time. Fasteners are used to secure the two parts of the poles together, capturing the material there between. Inserts are used in the ground to receive one the bottom end of the poles. Section locks are used to secure one section of fence to an adjacent section of fence. A gate is provided with two gate frame members. A first gate frame member supports the gate door and the second gate frame member supports the gate stop. The pole members of the gate frame members are adjustable in height so as to allow the gate frame members to support the gate in a level orientation. This is critical to a functional locking gate over time.
