Country Court, a respected care home provider in London, has recently completed the opening of its latest and flagship care home, Camberwell Lodge, in collaboration with Jacksons Fencing.

Nestled in the heart of Southwark, London, this partnership represents a significant milestone in combining state-of-the-art security measures with sophisticated living spaces within the care sector.

A sanctuary of security and style

As the newest jewel in Country Court’s crown, Camberwell Lodge expands the organisation's impressive portfolio, now counting over 35 residential care and nursing homes across the UK.

The facility, embodying Country Court’s ethos ‘our family, caring for yours,’ is not just a care home but a beacon of community and warmth, accommodating up to 98 residents. It offers a diverse range of services including nursing, residential, respite, and specialised dementia care.

Raising the standard of safety

Central to ensuring the security and safety of residents and the aesthetic appeal of Camberwell Lodge is Jacksons Fencing’s installation of 154 metres of Barbican Imperial vertical bar railings. 

These railings, standing proudly at 1.8 metres high, blend robust security with sleek design, demonstrating that safety and style can go hand in hand.

25-year guarantee

The railings are hot dip galvanised and polyester powder-coated black, ensuring long-lasting durability and a finish that complements the lodge’s contemporary architecture.

Each railing comes with the assurance of Jacksons Fencing’s 25-year guarantee, symbolising a commitment to quality and trust.

Elegance at the Entry

Further enhancing Camberwell Lodge’s secure yet elegant ambiance, Jacksons Fencing also installed an automated, 3-metre-wide sliding gate adorned with a matching Barbican Imperial infill.

This gate serves as a secure yet inviting and accessible entrance and parking area for staff, residents, and visitors, embodying the blend of robust security and aesthetic appeal.

Its vertical bar design, employing a welded pale-through-rail construction, not only deters climbing and vandalism but also adds a touch of sophistication to the facility’s overall appearance.

Coexistence of security and elegance

Reflecting on this successful project, Peter Jackson, Managing Director at Jacksons Fencing, expressed, “We are immensely proud to have partnered with Country Court in the development of Camberwell Lodge, a project that not only enhances their remarkable portfolio, but also stands as a beacon of how security and elegance can coexist harmoniously to benefit the care sector."

He adds, "A care home is more than just a facility; it’s a community space that needs to feel safe, welcoming, and comfortable, and we’re delighted to have played a role in bringing this vision to life and blending robust security with sleek design.
