As part of our mission to improve safety, clarity, and professionalism in the fence and gate industry through possible recognition of the TGM-500™ and TGM-501™ standards under IBC Section 104.11 when required.
We’re not asking them to rewrite the code.
We’re simply asking them to recognize a field-proven, installer-driven alternative that meets the same safety goals in a simpler, more accountable way.
Here's What We're Trying to Accomplish:
- ✅ Simplify compliance for contractors, installers, and inspectors
- ✅ Give AHJs a clear checklist they can actually use in the field
- ✅ Support small and mid-sized businesses with fair, accessible standards
- ✅ Promote real safety, not just sticker-based compliance
- ✅ Open the market to more manufacturers and innovation
- ✅ Raise professionalism across the entire industry
TGM-500™ and TGM-501™ are built for the real world.
They make safety visible, verifiable, and teachable—backed by Fence University with free training and checklists.
This is about showing local jurisdictions that the industry is ready to lead its own safety standards—with integrity, transparency, and pride.
If you support this mission, share it, talk about it, and use it in your work.
Together, we can raise the bar—and keep it in the hands of the people who build it.
