With so many options available, it can be hard to pick the right fence topping for you. So here we give you a rundown of your options to keep your fence secure.<\/p>\n

Anti-climb guard<\/h3>\n

This is a great option for those looking for something that won\u2019t leave an injury. However, the rotating spikes will be near-impossible to climb, and anyone wanting to get over the fence is soon going to give in.<\/p>\n

Barbed wire<\/h3>\n

It used a be a lot more common, but the barbed wire is still a popular choice. However, it isn\u2019t very safe, effortless to install, and it will require a minimal amount of maintenance.<\/p>\n

Cranked fence<\/h3>\n

Cranked fence toppings<\/a> are often seen on sports fencing to increase ball retention. The crank, however, will also make the fence<\/a> a lot more difficult to climb and is a good deterrent.<\/p>\n

Shark tooth or spike strips<\/h3>\n

Using sharp spike strips or shark teeth are a potent deterrent. They are sharper and larger than barbed wire, and the potential for injury is very high. If high security<\/a> is paramount, it makes for an intimidating barrier.<\/p>\n

Electric fence security topping<\/h3>\n

There is something about an electric fence<\/a> that terrifies people. They are tough to climb without getting electrocuted as not only is there a shock, but the lines will also be loose and impossible to grip.<\/p>\n

Razor wire<\/h3>\n

Razor wire is otherwise known as barbed tape<\/a> and can be commonly seen everywhere. However, the coils of barbed metal make it very difficult to scale without getting stuck in the wire. At Zaun<\/a>, we offer the solution in the common concertina shape but also as flat razor wire.<\/p>\n

Flexible Topping System<\/h3>\n

The Flexible Topping<\/a> System (FST) is a curved topping that is very hard to scale as it will flex and move while still having great strength. It can also be combined with a razor or barbed wire<\/a> to make a daunting topping impossible to climb.<\/p>\n

This is just a brief insight into the many fencing solutions<\/a> we have at Zaun<\/a>. If you are looking for a fence security topping and more, explore our website<\/a> or contact<\/a> us today to get all the information you need.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
