Double rod fences are relatively affordable, but the final price can vary greatly depending on the factors below.

1. Height of the fence

• The higher the fence, the more material and labor is required.
• Common heights: 100–120 cm, 150–180 cm and 200–240 cm.

2. Length of the route

• Large lengths reduce the price per meter due to economies of scale.
• Small sections (<10 meters) often have a higher rate per meter or a starting amount.

3. Finishing and coating

• Standard galvanized: basic protection.
• Galvanized + powder coating: extra protection and color (additional cost approx. € 15 – € 30 per meter).

4. Extra options

• Gates:
• Pedestrian gate from € 400 – € 700
• Double gate from € 1,200
• Special accessories such as barbed wire, anti-climb protection or concrete curbs.

5. Installation conditions

• Straight, flat sections: fast and efficient.
• Corners, obstacles or sloping terrain: more labor and possibly more material.
• Accessibility: hard-to-reach locations can add extra hours and transport costs.

6. Regional differences

• In urban areas, hourly rates are often higher than in rural areas.

7. Preparatory work

• Removing old fencing: extra costs (€ 15 – € 25 per meter).
• Possible earthworks or concrete foundations.

8. VAT rate

• The standard VAT rate of 21% applies to fences.

Conclusion

The price for a double wire fence depends on height, length, finish, options and the complexity of the installation.
Comparing quotes – for example via jeofferte.nl – provides insight into how these factors affect the final costs.

1. Determine the purpose of the fence in advance

• Security: higher version (200 cm or more), possibly with barbed wire.
• Closing off garden or yard: 100–180 cm is often sufficient.
• Aesthetics: consider powder coating in a RAL color that matches the environment.

2. Choose the right height and finish

• 100–120 cm: decorative and for garden separation.
• 150–180 cm: standard for gardens and light security.
• 200–240 cm: for industrial areas, schools or sports fields.
• Powder coating (extra investment) extends the lifespan and gives a neat appearance.

3. Combine fencing and gates in one project

• Order pedestrian gates or double gates directly with it.
• This saves extra assembly costs and prevents color differences.

4. Compare multiple quotes

• Price differences between providers are significant.
• Use platforms like jeofferte.nl to get multiple quotes and compare quality and price.

5. Check installation conditions

• Ensure a readily accessible workplace (no obstacles).
• Consider removing old fences yourself to reduce installation costs.

6. Consider a longer-term solution

• Double bar mats are more durable and stronger than standard wire mesh fencing; the higher purchase price pays for itself in lower maintenance costs.

7. Ask about warranty and maintenance

• Choose a supplier that offers a warranty on both material (rusting) and on the installation.

Conclusion

Double bar mat fences are in 2025 a very sustainable and cost-efficient choice for both individuals and companies.
By choosing height, finish and extra options smartly and comparing quotes, one can achieve a long lifespan and a sleek finish without unnecessarily high costs.
