What Procter Contracts does

Procter Fencing & Security (legal entity Procter Brothers Ltd, operating as Procter Contracts) is a UK commercial fencing and perimeter security contractor headquartered at an ISO 9001-certified facility in Bedwas, Caerphilly, South Wales, claiming over 280 years of industry heritage dating to circa 1745. The company delivers an integrated design, manufacture, installation, and maintenance offering across four service pillars: Fencing Systems (V Mesh, Acoustic, Sports/MUGA, 358 Prison Mesh, Twin Wire, Palisade, Site Hoarding, Timber, Louvre Screens, and Electric Fencing), Gates and Barriers (Bi-Fold Speed Gates, Sliding/Swing/Custom/High-Security Automatic Gates, Turnstiles, Rising Arm Barriers), Street Furniture (shelters, handrails, seating, playground equipment, bespoke metalwork, cycle storage, bin stores, bollards), and Access Control & CCTV (gate automation, access control systems, CCTV/surveillance, plus electric gate servicing). Underlying technology is metal fabrication and engineered perimeter hardware rather than software or AI; ISO 9001 quality certification and CHAS health-and-safety accreditation are central to tender eligibility.

The business model is project-based: revenue is generated primarily through one-time installation contracts for fencing, gates, and street furniture, supplemented by recurring gate servicing and maintenance subscriptions. Pricing is custom and quote-driven, with free site surveys; billing cadence can run across multi-year contracts. The go-to-market is enterprise field sales, with three UK regional contact offices (North, South Wales/Central England, South East/London) targeting construction contractors, utilities, transport operators, airports, local authorities, and commercial/industrial buyers.

Customer segments are diversified across at least ten verticals, with named enterprise clients including Wates Group, Morgan Sindall, Willmott Dixon, Bouygues UK, BAM Construction, Kier Construction, Amey Construction, Bellway Homes, Miller Homes, Wales & West Utilities, Transport for Wales, and the University of South Wales, alongside multiple Welsh local authorities (Caerphilly CBC, Cardiff Council, Newport City Council, Merthyr Tydfil CBC). The firm is privately held with no disclosed funding rounds, M&A activity, or external investment; revenue and headcount are not publicly disclosed beyond a stated 70-person integrated team (conflicting with a 14-employee figure in external firmographic data). Recent commercial signals include 2025 AFI UK Fencing Industry Awards recognition and a refreshed corporate brand.
