Steel Mesh Machine Guarding

Built for industrial automation environments.

The Machine Guards Direct steel mesh machine guard system is a modular perimeter guarding platform designed for industrial machinery, robotic automation and production line separation.

Unlike traditional fabricated guarding, modular steel panel systems allow faster installation, easier future expansion and cleaner integration with modern industrial automation environments.

The system is commonly deployed around robotic cells, conveyors, CNC machines, palletisers, welding systems and automated production equipment.

A better fit for changing production

Strong where it matters. Flexible where your operation needs it.

Good machine guarding should feel considered, not improvised. A modular steel mesh system creates a clean, professional perimeter around the hazard while keeping the machine visible and access points where your team actually needs them.

Clear visibility

Maintain useful sightlines into the guarded area without compromising the physical boundary.

Purposeful access

Place doors and access points around operators, maintenance and material movement.

A tidy installation

Create a consistent guarding line that looks at home in a modern production environment.

Room to adapt

A modular approach makes future layout changes more straightforward than fixed fabrication.

Panel Options

Choose the right panel type for visibility, containment and protection.

Panels can be configured to suit the level of visibility, containment and protection required.

Steel mesh machine guard panel
Mesh Panels – strong, open visibility for general machine guarding
Solid infill machine guard panel
Sheet Metal Panels – ideal for welding, grinding or debris containment
Polycarbonate infill machine guard panel
Polycarbonate Panels – full visibility with added impact protection
Standard Posts

Steel posts for dependable structural support.

Standard Posts are engineered to deliver dependable structural support for both panel doors and fixed panel installations. Manufactured from 75 × 75 × 2.5mm SHS steel, they provide high rigidity and long-term durability in demanding industrial environments.

All posts are powder-coated in Safety Yellow as standard for corrosion resistance and high visibility. They are available in two stock heights—1.2m and 2.0m—covering the majority of installation requirements.

Each post is supplied with a capped top for a clean finish and to prevent debris ingress. Pre-punched and tapped M6 mounting points are included on all four sides (top and bottom), allowing for flexible, multi-directional panel and accessory mounting.
