Plastic ballast block for temporary fencing
The Temporary Fencing Plastic Ballast Block is a UK-made ballast block that bridges two rubber Heras-style fencing feet, adding weight to hold temporary fence panels upright and secure. Moulded from UV-stabilised medium-density polyethylene, it is supplied empty for self-filling or pre-filled with concrete, and carries two integrated carry handles for lifting into place.
Key features
-
Fits over rubber fencing feet - bridges two Heras-style rubber feet to add extra weight where a panel needs it most.

-
Two carry handles - moulded handles on both sides for a secure lift into place.

Weatherproof - UV-stabilised construction holds up to outdoor use in all UK weather.
Where it is used
The ballast block does the same job wherever temporary fencing needs to stay upright:
- Construction sites - securing perimeter fence panels
- Events and festivals - crowd control and boundary fencing
- Utilities and street works - weighting fencing around excavations
- Public spaces - securing fencing around schools, parks and public realm works
