Temporary fence fleets often fail at the interfaces: a replacement foot does not match the frame, a clamp has the wrong opening, or a stay is delivered without its required bases and fasteners. The solution is to manage each accessory as a defined part with a drawing, dimensions, finish and quantity.
MaiFa Fence publishes Australian-style panels together with plastic, iron-plate and rubber base types, concrete-filled base options, steel clamps and hot-dip-galvanized stays. The website contains more than one stay assembly description, so replacement orders should be based on the existing fleet and approved part drawing rather than the word 'standard'.
Compatibility rule: send photos and measured interface dimensions or a physical sample when replacing parts for another fleet. A similar-looking foot or clamp is not proof of interchangeability.
1. Build a replacement-part register
Part |
Identification fields |
Common purchasing error |
Panel foot/base |
Length, width, height, filled mass, hole size/spacing, shell and colour |
Ordering by mass only. |
Panel clamp |
Plate thickness, formed opening, bolt/nut, finish and connection position |
Assuming every round-tube panel uses the same clamp. |
Stay/brace |
Tube section, length, end detail, finish and approved connection drawing |
Buying the brace without its clamps and bases. |
Gate hardware |
Hinge, latch, wheel, connector and clear-opening reference |
Treating a converted panel as a complete gate. |
Fasteners |
Diameter, length, grade, nut/washer and coating |
Mixing incompatible or undersized hardware. |
2. Select the correct base
MaiFa publishes a 600 x 220 x 150 mm, 25 kg blow-moulded concrete-filled base and a 560 x 245 x 130 mm, 32 kg concrete-filled alternative. It also lists plastic, iron-plate and rubber base categories. These options should not be combined into a single generic specification.
For a replacement purchase, measure the existing panel leg or frame outside diameter, base holes and centre spacing. Confirm whether the base is supplied filled, its finished mass tolerance, lifting/handling expectations, colour, packaging and compatibility with the selected stay. If the site uses water-filled rather than concrete-filled bases, identify that configuration separately.
3. Separate panel clamps from brace clamps
MaiFa's 2.1 m x 2.4 m page describes heavy-duty 4 mm thick steel clamps for joining panels and attaching support stays. The quotation should state whether one clamp design performs both functions or whether separate parts are supplied. Record the formed opening, plate thickness, bolt/nut and corrosion protection.
- Count panel-to-panel joints from the actual layout.
- Count brace connection points from the approved stay drawing.
- Add a clearly stated spare quantity for lost or damaged clamps and bolts.
- Pack clamp sets so bolts, nuts and washers remain together.
- Label cartons with the same part number used on the drawing and packing list.
4. Order a stay as an assembly
One MaiFa table describes a complete brace set as one brace, two bases and two clamps. Another page says each stay requires three clamps and three plastic feet. Because the public pages do not define one universal assembly, the replacement order must reference the selected drawing and list every component. The drawing should also show the panel connection height and base orientation.
The number and location of stays remain site-dependent. Give the supplier the fence line, corners, gates, exposure, ground and screening. Replacement parts restore a known system; they do not replace a site stability review when the layout or wind area changes.

6. Copy-and-send spare-parts RFQ
Please quote replacement parts for our Australian temporary fence fleet. Existing panel: [outside dimensions], frame OD [mm]. Required items: [base quantity and dimensions/mass], [panel clamp quantity], [brace clamp quantity], [stay quantity and drawing], [bolts/nuts/spares], and [gate hardware]. Attached are [photos/drawing/sample measurements]. Confirm interchangeability, all dimensions and finishes, parts per assembly, carton/pallet quantities, package weights, lead time and [Incoterm] price to [named place]. Do not substitute parts without written drawing approval.
Frequently asked questions
Can replacement feet be ordered by weight alone?
No. Dimensions, hole arrangement, shell/material and panel/stay compatibility are also required.
Are all temporary fence clamps interchangeable?
No. Confirm frame interface, formed opening, plate thickness and fastener arrangement.
What is included in a stay set?
The public MaiFa pages show different assemblies. The quotation must state the exact drawing and component count.
How many spare clamps should be purchased?
Set a buyer-approved spare quantity based on fleet size, handling cycle and loss history; do not assume a universal percentage.
Use drawings to make MaiFa replacement orders repeatable
A controlled spare-parts register turns later orders into a repeatable process. MaiFa can quote bases, clamps, stays and related hardware against measured interfaces and an approved drawing.
