Security fencing toppings are a key factor to consider when protecting your premises. While security might be their main feature, fence toppings also serve an aesthetic purpose. Aside from this, fence toppings are recommended for fences that are generally higher than 2m to prevent injuries to public members.<\/p>\n

Below we explore some of the types of fence toppings<\/a> and their uses.<\/p>\n

Types of fence<\/a> toppings;<\/p>\n

1. Anti-climb fence topping<\/h2>\n

With its main intent as deterring potential intruders from accessing your premises, the anti-climb<\/a> fence topping serves as a non-injurious security measure. The fence topping<\/a> is designed with rotating spikes that spin around. This serves as a safe security<\/a> measure while still enhancing security and complying with the Occupiers\u2019 Liability Act 1957 and Liability Act 1984. The caution sign should, however, be installed to serve as a warning.<\/p>\n

2. Barbed wire fence topping<\/h2>\n

The barbed wire fence security topping<\/a> is constructed using steel where sharp edges are installed along the strands. Ideal with perimeter fencing<\/a>, the barbed wire toppings can also be used as fences to secure properties in agricultural settings or for commercial and domestic use.<\/p>\n

3. Electric fence topping<\/h2>\n

The electric fence topping<\/a> is a non-lethal electric shock barrier that acts as a powerful deterrent to any potential intruder or trespasser. A fully monitored fence topping with danger warning signs installed<\/a> on it is used in combination with other sophisticated electronic devices such as CCTV. This serves as an alert system of any attempted intrusion<\/a>. The fence topping is mainly installed in high-security<\/a> areas such as international airports, industrial sites, etc.<\/p>\n

4. Spike strips fencing<\/h2>\n

Fitted rigidly on top of walls or gates, the spike strip fence topping<\/a> is designed with spikes that cause discomfort to anyone who attempts to intrude on the property. They come with bolts or welded metal strips that are pre-mounted or mounted after the perimeter fence<\/a> installation, making climbing impossible. Again, it is advisable to install the security<\/a> spike strips topping onto heights over 2m to avoid injury to any passersby.<\/p>\n

If you’re looking to maximise your security measures, fence toppings provide<\/a> a great solution. At Zaun<\/a>, we supply a wide variety of fence topping solutions for you to invest in as an added safety feature, whatever your property. Find out more by getting in touch<\/a> today.<\/p>\n\n\n
