Specifying

 

When considering acoustic fencing key criteria to consider includes:

  • The location(s) of the noise source

  • The intensity and frequency of the noise

  • The distance from the noise to the acoustic barrier

  • The location of the position or areas to be screened

  • The density, height and degree of reflection/absorption required from the barrier

 

For a totally integrated acoustic fencing solution Jacksons offer matching Jakoustic® timber gates in either a reflective or absorptive type, in swing and tracked sliding designs for manual or automated operation.
