Elevating the Game with a 40' Baseball Backstop for Penn-Co Construction 

At Bestway Fence, we're not just in the business of building fences; we're in the business of exceeding expectations. When our clients ask us to fence, we ask how high. Recently, we had the privilege of partnering with Penn-Co Construction to construct a towering 40-foot tall baseball backstop for the new Northwest District Police Station in Winnipeg, and we couldn't be prouder of the result. 

The Project 

Penn-Co Construction needed a durable and reliable backstop to protect the parking lot for the new Northwest District Police Station. They turned to Bestway Fence for our expertise and commitment to quality. Here's a glimpse into how we brought this impressive structure to life. 

Laying the Foundation 

The foundation of any great structure starts with a solid base. For this project in Winnipeg, we poured 16-foot deep piles with internal sleeves. These sleeves are crucial as they provide the necessary support for the massive line posts that would form the backbone of the backstop. 

Erecting the Line Posts 

The line posts we used for this backstop are no ordinary posts. We welded up 6-5/8" line posts, ensuring they were sturdy and reliable. These posts were then craned into position and expertly slid over the internal sleeves. This method not only ensured precision but also provided the necessary stability for such a tall structure. 

Adding the Mid and Brace Rails 

Once the line posts were securely in place, we turned our attention to the mid and brace rails. Using schedule 40 2-3/8" rails, we welded these in to provide additional support and stability. This step is vital as it ensures the backstop can withstand the elements and the impact of countless baseballs over the years. 

The Result 

The end result is a 40-foot tall baseball backstop that stands as a testament to our dedication to quality and craftsmanship. This structure not only meets Penn-Co Construction's needs but also sets a new standard for excellence in chain link fencing solutions in Winnipeg.
