FIND OUT MOREFor effective perimeter protection, we recommend an anti-climb fence with a minimum height of 2.4 metres, using either welded mesh or palisade fencing. In higher-risk areas or locations with increased criminal activity, additional security toppings such as cranked extensions, barbed wire, or anti-climb rollers can provide enhanced deterrence. Our team at Alexandra Security can assess your site and recommend the most suitable fencing configuration for maximum security.
Fire-rated fencing isn’t always mandatory for battery storage sites, but using non-conductive and low-flammability materials is strongly advised to minimise fire and electrical hazards. Our fencing systems are designed with electrical safety, grounding requirements, and fire separation in mind, helping you meet both safety standards and insurer expectations.
