What it Means to Be a Part of the American Fence Association

Since 1962, the American Fence Association (AFA) has been an advocate for both the fence industry and the consumer. For consumers, the affiliation means confidence in the decision to hire an AFA contractor. For a professional fencing company, AFA membership means exhibiting the highest standards, skill level, and pride in being among the best in the business.

Gold Standard Expertise Only fence contractors with superior technical installation skills are AFA contractors. This level of aptitude comes with decades of experience. In fact, the average number of years that an AFA contractor has been in business is 22. In a nutshell, being part of the AFA means you’re among the best in the industry and part of a gold standard.

Ethical Standards The AFA logo only appears next to the name of fence companies and contractors who adhere to the strictest ethical standards. These standards stress honesty and responsibility in all business and consumer relations and transactions.

Industry-Specific Training AFA contractors also enjoy access to over 160 hours of the best education and training opportunities in the industry. This means that specialized education in the latest fencing materials, complex installation methods, and equipment and technology is available for an AFA member every year.

Promise of Quality Whether a customer needs a post-driven, wrought iron, chain link, barbed wire, or other fence, an AFA-member fencing company is up to the job. No matter the type of fence and size of the job, an AFA fence company can provide a promise of quality. Consumers and clients can have more peace of mind with this promise, especially because it’s backed up by experience, superior skills, ethical practices, and ongoing industry-specific education.

Cal-State Site Services, Inc. is proud to carry the AFA logo and adhere to the highest standards in our industry.

Planning Your Big Labor Day Event This Year

If you’re organizing a big Labor Day event for your business, organization, or community, remember to plan well in advance to make the event a success. Laying the ground work ahead of time means you’re more likely to be relaxed on the big day. Here are some tips and suggestions to help you plan your event this September:

Establish Boundaries and Walkways If you expect crowds in the hundreds at your big outdoor Labor Day event, consider establishing boundaries and walkways with barricades. These let people know which areas of the ground are on- and off-limits. Used as boundaries, barricades help separate event staff and food vendors from attendees. Used as walkways, barricades direct the flow of pedestrian traffic toward events, speakers, and vendors. You may want to consider high-end designer barricades made from 100% recycled material for a more professional look.

Provide Portable Toilets Without somewhere to answer nature’s call, a big Labor Day event can quickly turn into a big problem for guests. Consider your different options when choosing portable toilets for your event. Standard portable toilets have all the basics, like a separate urinal, fully-stocked toilet paper, a purse hook, mirror, and an “in use” indicator. Other options and upgrades include a spacious ADA-approved portable toilet and deluxe portable toilets with additions like a hand soap dispenser and foot-activated water sink.

Add Entrance Gates Entrance gates allow you to control crowd flow and attendance numbers at your Labor Day event. Whether your event is open to the public or an invitation-only affair, security checkpoints at gates can help you ensure that your event does not become overcrowded or unsafe.

At Cal-State Site Services, Inc., we have extensive experience renting out and setting up fences, gates, barricades, and portable toilets for huge events in the Simi Valley area. Take advantage of our more than 20 years in the business for your Labor Day event, and give us a call today at (888) 440-6122. We offer all of the products and services mentioned above, plus much more.

Hosting an End-of-Summer Tournament? Make It Authentic with Professionally-Installed Sports Field Fencing

Summer is in full swing and, for many people, this means enjoying the weather and spending more time outside. A sports event provides a great opportunity for you to bring friends, family, and community members together to enjoy the outdoors. Enclosing your next sporting event or tournament with rental fencing is a great way to add a more professional atmosphere. Whether you’re organizing a business softball league, a school sports tourney, or a community field day, sports fencing can help keep your event safe by:

Designating the Field of Play

Fence rental companies offer several types of fencing for your event. For sports tournaments and games, it’s a good idea to choose freestanding chain link panels. Chain link fencing is versatile, doesn't block the view for spectators, and is highly mobile. With this fencing, you can define the area of your tournament and even create separate fields, depending upon the nature of your event. Outlining the field of play provides an easy way to identify homeruns or foul balls, keep the game on the field, and add that “real” feeling to any sporting event. However, rental fencing does more than just set your boundaries. It can also help you keep your tournament within regulation, if necessary.

Providing Flexibility and Function

Chain link fencing panels can be reconfigured on the fly, and any panel can be converted into a gated entryway if necessary. Create bullpens, exits, and any configuration you need to keep your sporting tournament safe and organized. For sloped areas or sporting fields with lots of dirt, you can use post-driven chain link fencing as well for added stability.
