Fences and Barriers
Modern fences and enclosures are not only used to visually define boundaries but also serve as a full-fledged element of an engineering perimeter protection system. The choice of fence type depends on the purpose of the site, security requirements, operating conditions, and budget. This category includes the main types of fences used to protect industrial, infrastructure, commercial, and private areas.
Barbed Wire Fence
A barbed wire fence is one of the simplest yet time-tested solutions for enclosing large areas. Its primary function is to create a physical and psychological barrier against unauthorized access. Such fence are typically installed on metal or reinforced concrete posts and can be used either as a standalone enclosure or as an additional protective element mounted on top of a main fence. Barbed wire fences are widely used in agricultural areas, warehouse zones, technical sites, and facilities with moderate security requirements.
Flat Barrier Fence
A flat barrier fence combines high protective efficiency with a compact structural design. The flat barrier is installed as a dense panel, significantly complicating any attempt to overcome the fence without specialized tools. This type of fencing is commonly used at restricted-access facilities, industrial plants, logistics centers, and along transport infrastructure. Due to its flat profile, the fence requires minimal space and is well suited for installation along existing fences or walls.
Concertina Barrier Fence
A concertina barrier fence provides an enhanced level of perimeter protection through its three-dimensional spatial structure. The concertina barrier creates a multi-layered obstacle that is extremely difficult to overcome without considerable effort and risk. This type of fencing is widely used at military sites, warehouses, industrial zones, and for both temporary and permanent protection of areas with high security requirements. A concertina barrier fence can be installed directly on the ground or mounted on top of an existing fence.
Razor Mesh Fence
A razor mesh fence is an effective solution for creating a continuous protective perimeter. Razor mesh forms a dense surface that prevents crawling through, tunneling, or cutting without specialized equipment. Such fences are commonly used to secure industrial facilities, warehouse territories, energy infrastructure, and other critical areas. Razor mesh can be used as a primary fencing element or combined with other fence types to enhance overall security.
Welded Panel Fence
A welded panel fence combines strength, durability, and a clean, orderly appearance. Welded panels are manufactured from metal wires welded into a rigid grid structure, providing resistance to mechanical stress. This type of fencing is widely used for commercial properties, administrative buildings, residential complexes, and private territories. Welded panel fences can serve both protective and decorative purposes while maintaining high performance characteristics.
Welded Panel and Razor Mesh Fence
A combined fence made of welded panels and razor mesh provides an increased level of security without compromising structural rigidity. The welded panels act as the main load-bearing element, while the razor mesh significantly complicates any attempt to breach the fence. This solution is optimal for sites where both strength and high perimeter protection are required. Welded panel and razor mesh fences are widely used at industrial facilities, warehouses, restricted-access sites, and infrastructure installations.
Choosing a Fence Based on Protection Requirements
Each type of fence has its own characteristics and area of application. A barbed wire fence is suitable for basic enclosure, a flat barrier is ideal for compact and reliable protection, while concertina barriers or razor mesh provide maximum deterrence. Welded panels offer a balance between security and appearance, and combined solutions deliver the highest level of perimeter protection. Selecting the appropriate fence type ensures long service life and compliance with the security requirements of a specific site.
