The Story
We’re proud of our roots.
The New Guy
Tony Duckett’s story started in 1992 when he left school at the age of fifteen to go straight into the Fencing business. Tony joined Fenceways in Levenshulme as an apprentice and very quickly knew it was the career path he wanted to follow. He soon learned the ropes and in 1994 joined Curran Fencing under the leadership of its founder Brian Curran. If his time at Fenceways was the beginning of his apprenticeship the move to Curran moved him to a new level in the Fencing business. Tony spent 6 years with Curran and ironically moved back to Fenceways when a new opportunity opened up for him. So after another 3 years with Fenceways he returned to Curran and undertook new responsibilities including the role of Estimator.
Tony decided to have a go on his own and in 2014 set up Chapel Fencing and brought his son Luke into the business. However in late 2019 Brian Curran decided to retire and approached Tony with a view to taking over the business. Agreement reached so in January 2020 Tony acquired Curran Fencing and the circle was complete.
Born in 1979
By 1982, business had grown significantly that a more permanent premises was sought and Hawkins Street Trading Estate became the official home of Curran Fencing.
The Legacy
Brian was at the helm until September 2014 when he decided it was time to hand over the trusty briefcase to his son, Stephen.
