Factory quotation for 868 and 656 systems
We manufacture and quote double wire fence panels as complete twin wire fencing systems for B2B perimeter projects. Also called twin wire fence, twin wire mesh fencing or double horizontal wire fence, this system uses paired horizontal wires around each vertical wire. Compare 868 and 656, then send us your fence length, height, finish, gates and destination for a project-specific quotation.
Product definition
A double wire fence is a flat welded mesh panel with two horizontal wires welded around each vertical wire. Buyers also call it twin wire fence, twin wire mesh fencing or double horizontal wire fence. In our quotation, we use 868 and 656 to identify the wire configuration, then confirm the panel, post, fixing, finish and gate details for the complete fence line.
868 means 8/6/8 mm and 656 means 6/5/6 mm: horizontal, vertical, horizontal.
The heavier 868 structure is the starting point when panel stiffness matters more; 656 reduces system weight where the project permits it.
We count panels, posts, clamp strips or clips, bolts, caps, gates and packing as one coordinated scope.
Choose the right panel
8/6/8
Higher rigidity
We start with 868 when the project brief calls for a heavier welded mesh panel, then confirm the height, post system, fixing method and site conditions.
6/5/6
Balanced cost
We compare 656 when the brief allows a lighter twin wire panel and the buyer wants to balance rigidity, material weight and project cost.

If you only know the total length, height, site type and budget range, we can structure the enquiry around both 868 and 656 before a final choice is made.
Buyer planning reference
We use these published market patterns to help buyers define an enquiry. Every dimension, tolerance, post, finish and packing detail must still be confirmed in our quotation and approval documents.
| Planning item | 868 common reference | 656 common reference | What we confirm |
|---|---|---|---|
| Wire configuration | 8 / 6 / 8 mm | 6 / 5 / 6 mm | The numbers refer to horizontal, vertical and horizontal wire diameters. |
| Mesh opening | 50 x 200 mm is widely published | 50 x 200 mm is widely published | We confirm the required opening and any alternative before quoting. |
| Panel height | Published single-panel systems commonly cover several heights up to about 2.4 m | Published single-panel systems commonly cover several heights up to about 2.4 m | We confirm height, panel arrangement, post length and project requirements. |
| Panel width | Published market panels are commonly around 2.5 m wide | Published market panels are commonly around 2.5 m wide | We confirm the panel width and approved post centres together. |
| Post system | Square or rectangular post; clips or clamp bars are common | Square or rectangular post; clips or clamp bars are common | We confirm section, wall thickness, length and base-plated or embedded installation. |
| Surface finish | Galvanized and/or powder-coated systems are common | Galvanized and/or powder-coated systems are common | We confirm the coating route, colour and required documentation before production. |
| Packing | Panels, posts and hardware are normally grouped separately | Panels, posts and hardware are normally grouped separately | We define bundle protection, labels and small-parts cartons in the quotation. |
Important: the table is an industry planning reference, not a declaration of stock or a fixed TOPSFENCE production specification. Only our written quotation and approved drawing define what we will manufacture for an order.
Complete quotation scope
We count the fence line as a coordinated system so the panel choice, post centres, fixings, gates, spare parts and packing do not conflict.
We confirm 868 or 656, panel height, width, wire code and mesh opening in writing.
We match the proposed post section, wall thickness and length to the approved fence layout.
We record the fixing system and quantity instead of treating hardware as an unspecified accessory.
We count small parts against the panel bays and identify how they will be grouped for shipment.
We add pedestrian or vehicle openings only after the clear width, operation and hardware are defined.
We can include a requested spare-parts quantity for installation teams or distributor stock.
Surface protection
Finish descriptions vary between suppliers. Send the exposure condition, colour and any required standard so we can confirm the available coating route for your order.
Tell us whether the specification calls for pre-galvanized wire or galvanizing after fabrication. We confirm the proposed route and available documents before production.
This is a common market route for coloured perimeter systems. We confirm the RAL colour, preparation and coating requirement in the quotation.
If your specification calls for PVC coating, marine-grade protection or another system, send the standard and exposure category for feasibility confirmation.
Where it fits
Application examples help us compare 868 and 656, but the site brief, fence height, ground conditions and required security level decide the final system.
Buyers often compare twin wire fencing for visible boundaries around campuses, courts, playgrounds and public facilities.
We usually start the comparison with 868 when production, loading and storage areas need a heavier panel line.
We compare appearance, visibility, gate openings and system weight for offices, warehouses and car park boundaries.
Send the access-control and security brief so we can determine whether a standard twin wire panel is appropriate.
Site and shipment checks
Post centres: we align them with the approved panel width, corners and gate openings.
Base-plated or embedded posts: we need the foundation method before finalizing post length.
Fixing quantities: we count clips or clamps, bolts, caps, hinges and gate hardware by system.
Packing sequence: we separate panels, posts and labelled hardware groups for easier receiving.
Review our factory page for visible workshop, inspection and packing context.
See our production process for the steps we use from specification review to loading.
We confirm which inspection records, coating documents and packing photos are applicable to the quoted order.
Only the signed quotation and approved drawing define the product, tolerance, finish and delivery scope.
Get a useful first quote
Send what you know. If one item is undecided, we will flag the assumption instead of presenting a market reference as an approved specification.
Tell us your preferred wire code or ask us to compare both against the project brief.
Give the required height, total length, corners, slopes and any fixed bay dimensions.
State embedded or base-plated installation and any specified clips, brackets or clamp bars.
Send the coating route, RAL colour, exposure condition and required documentation if specified.
List pedestrian, swing or sliding openings, clear widths and hardware expectations.
Fence length, spare-parts requirement, destination port and unloading method shape the packing plan.
Before requesting a quote
868 uses two 8 mm horizontal wires and one 6 mm vertical wire. 656 uses two 6 mm horizontal wires and one 5 mm vertical wire. We compare 868 when rigidity is the priority and 656 when the project permits a lighter, more cost-balanced system.
Yes. Twin wire fence, twin mesh fencing, twin wire mesh fencing and double horizontal wire fence commonly describe the same welded panel concept: two horizontal wires around each vertical wire. We still confirm whether your project requires 868, 656 or another approved wire configuration.
It is commonly specified for schools, parks and sports boundaries because the welded grid preserves visibility and the paired horizontal wires add panel rigidity. We still need the height, ground conditions, impact risk and local safety requirements before recommending a system.
We quote panels, line and corner posts, gate posts, clips or clamp strips, bolts, caps and matching gates as one coordinated scope after the layout is defined.
Galvanized and galvanized-plus-powder-coated systems are common market choices. Send the exposure condition, colour and required standard; we will confirm the coating route available for the quoted order rather than assume it.
We calculate the quotation from the wire configuration, panel dimensions, post section, fixing method, finish, gate quantity, total system quantity, packing method and destination. A panel-only unit price is not enough to compare two complete fence systems.

Send the structure, size, total length, finish, gates, installation method, packing requirement and destination. We will identify any missing assumptions before preparing the quotation.
