Its markets include critical national infrastructure, schools and other government-backed projects alongside premium residential fencing and commercial perimeter fencing.
Jacksons is headquartered in Ashford, Kent. It has two other fencing sites, near Bath and Chester, while its Autogate Systems business is based in Bolton.
