As part of the remodel of this mid-century hotel (near Oregon Convention Center), The Western Group’s woven wire is used extensively. Dense security screen surrounds the perimeter and 1″ intermediate crimp supports climbing vines in the central parking deck’s courtyard.

TWG provided woven wire mesh for the jail cell sets on the HBO series “True Blood” after working with set design company, Fangbanger. This installation is one of several examples of our materials making an appearance in a movie or on television.

Located at the San Ysidro Land Port of Entry, the world’s busiest land-based border crossing, this bridge securely connects the United States and Mexico. A strong woven wire is set in welded frames and attached to the slightly angled structure.

Living Screen® surrounds a small, grassy amphitheater and includes custom gates. The radius was achieved through custom post mounts that allowed for the arc without curving each panel.

Living Screen® serves as infill in exterior brick wall openings and as a barrier (with perforated plate on one side) at service enclosures at this university campus in Philadelphia. TWG provided panels in varying sizes to match the existing dimensions and posts for mounting the perimeter fencing.

Woven wire (specifically, the Venetian Waterways I pattern) fills large window-like openings that surround this multi-story brick and concrete parking structure on the GTCC campus. Screens are sized to fit inside an aluminum storefront system; their stainless steel finish shines like glass in direct sunlight while providing shading and security for the facility.

TWG produces Architectural mesh as welded wire, woven wire and perforated metal for all types of security and safety applications. This includes detention centers, secure storage and fall protection. Contact us to find the right product for your project.            

Living Screen® provides a secure perimeter around a courtyard and garden space for this innovative project in Chicago, Illinois. Post-mounted panels and gates enclose an area that is used for educational purposes, as residents are taught how to cultivate crops in a space that was formerly an asphalt parking lot. As climbing plants grow to maturity, leaves will buffer the sight and sound of passing vehicular traffic.

138 Living Screen® panels are installed on two facades of this six-story parking facility in San Antonio, Texas. Many of the panels measure 9’ by 21’; to complete the installation, some screens are mounted above one another to give the illusion on a single panel spanning from ground to parapet. This “stacked” assembly will allow for well-tended climbing vines to extend the entire height of the building – a Texas-sized […]

Mounted to the southeast facade of this parking structure are several installations that demonstrate not only the capabilities of tension screen as a cladding and sunshading system but also its possibilities as an eye-catching signage display. In this instance, the graphic images were applied by an artist whose spray booth size limitations forced screens to be manufactured in 10′ heights; typically tension screens may extend greater than 20′ in height […]

Located in a natural setting north of Lake Tahoe, the building’s exterior showcases crimped and woven wire as rail fill. Individual panels are finished with banding on all sides, then mounted to tabs that connect to the rail structure. Finish colors are custom-made to match the metal roof and other architectural and aesthetic features around the timber-lined property.

A major redesign of the Transit Mall in Portland, Oregon, features a modern, technology-centric look and feel at all transit shelters. TWG provided stainless steel woven wire wraps at each column which encase the LED lighting fixtures, the drainage system and structural supports.

Woven wire serves as a secure infill behind a heavier gates at this Pearl District apartment building.

Black powdercoated woven wire infill contrasts with blonde wooden framing at this private residence near Lake Tahoe, California. Used in both interior and exterior applications, the weave pattern offers sturdiness and security while maintaining a look that matches the home’s modern/rustic aesthetic.

This parking structure’s challenging site – located on a steep hillside along a busy boulevard and fronting an urban park – made for the type of project TWG embraces. The architectural firm’s intent was to create a parking facility that, by design, has as little visual impact on its surroundings as possible. One method for achieving this goal is the extensive use of TWG’s Living Screen® in order to soften […]

TWG provided stock welded wire panels that were welded by the installer to enable a match to the arcing structural form of this steel pedestrian/cycling bridge. Panels were galvanized prior to installation. The span above busy McLoughlin Boulevard allows the Springwater Corridor path to continue from urban neighborhoods through natural wetlands and green spaces.

Exterior cladding for this multi-story parking facility is achieved using hundreds of perforated panels mounted to steel tubing. Panels are arranged in a pattern that allows for occasional gaps and overlaps on a large radius. The slotted openings in each panel provide excellent shading while maintaining a level of transparency both day and night.

A pedestrian bridge connecting a transit center to nearby neighborhoods, the design is an abstract “fish” that spans the Interstate 205 corridor. Special shapes of galvanized welded wire were created by TWG to fit the bridge’s unique configuration.

Perforated plates create a tall vertical screen that undulates across three facades of this parking structure for Legacy Emanuel in Portland, Oregon. The strength of interconnecting bent panels allows for greater spanning distances and minimal connection points. Hole openings in each panel admit ample daylight while maintaining security.

471 framed and powder coated panels are applied to all four facades of this parking facility. The system devised is a modification of standard Living Screen®, with wire mesh on one face to promote climbing plant growth and perforated plate on the opposite face to provide visual interest and security. The perforated pattern (Matrix) was specially designed by the Architect in collaboration with TWG’s Engineering team; the seemingly random array […]
