Security can mean different things to different people. Sometimes security is about keeping people out or keeping them (and animals) safe from hazardous situations. Security can also be about protecting your privacy or keeping people in.

Recent global events have highlighted the overriding importance of maintaining high levels of security at airports and busy railway yards.
Superior security fencing designed to prevent vandalism, unauthorised entry, and terrorist attacks is the first layer of protection ensuring the safety of customers, visitors, staff and property.
Airport and railway security fencing needs to be attractive as well as highly functional because you don’t want the area to resemble a prison.
Your airport or railway security fencing should include these key design features:

Well designed security fencing plays an important part in keeping our highways, bridges and roads safe for all road users, pedestrians, and our precious native animals as well.
Road security fencing needs to be:
Chain wire, with heights of up to 4.5 metres and various aperture sizes, is ideal for animal exclusion fencing.
Promax 358 Security Mesh and the Promax T-post system is ideal for road security fencing.
The small aperture size makes climbing all but impossible and yet allows good visibility both for security purposes and for visitor appreciation of scenic features.
The Promax system makes attractive security fencing up to 4.8 metres in height and is designed to easily accommodate extra security features such as razor wire and CCTV cameras.
Some of the Protective large scale roading projects have included:
Car park accidents have been increasing in number and severity throughout Australia in recent years.
After hours personal security and preventing suicide attempts are also high on the list of car park security concerns.
Under Australian law you, as a car park owner, are responsible for ensuring that all car park safety barriers comply with the Australian Standards 2890.1-2004.
Failure to protect your staff, car park users, and the general public may lead to Health and Safety fines, and litigation.
Barriers and fencing that comply with the standards are required in the following situations:
Promax 358 welded mesh fencing and the Promax™ T post and rail system is the perfect fit for ensuring security and safety requirements for all car parks.
Promax 358 mesh is:
50 x 50 x 4 mesh is also a popular choice for car park security fencing—the tight aperture design eliminates climbing access.
Data security has become one of the most pressing security issues of the 21st century.
Data centres may be vulnerable to physical attack as well as online hacking attempts. To guard against unauthorised entry to data centres, Protective Fencing suggest the use of:
Desalination plants such as the Adelaide and Sydney Desalination plants play a critical role in maintaining water security.
Without a reliable supply of fresh water human life in Australia would quickly become very difficult.
Desalination plants must guard against contamination of those water supplies. Potential unauthorised access threats would tend to focus on climbing, cutting or ramming the security fence.
The Promax security fence system is the system of choice for protecting our valuable water supplies.
Prisons and detention centres, obviously, have very demanding security fencing requirements.
One of the chief roles of prisons is to protect society from dangerous criminals.
So, prison perimeter fences need to be escape-proof but they also need to prevent people from outside the prison trying to smuggle contraband in to prisoners.
Detention centres can also act as quarantine stations preventing the potential spread of contagious diseases and allowing authorities to process refugees for possible resettlement.
Prison security fences have tough requirements to prevent:
Prison security fences also need to ensure good surveillance visibility and allow additional high security features such as CCTV and razor wire toppings.
Protective recommends the following products:
Promax 358 mesh:
Promax T-posts:
Macem sheet metal fencing:
Unauthorised access to electrical substations or other high voltage danger zones poses a severe risk to an intruder’s health.
Sometimes it’s literally suicidal; other times it’s a drug fuelled game. Either way, it’s highly dangerous.
Electrical substation security fencing is designed to prevent the public coming into contact with these hazardous areas.
Essential Energy, Electranet, ActewAGL, Endeavour Energy, ETSA, Transgrid, and Ausgrid use the following products to protect their infrastructure and to keep the public safe:
You would think that most people would want to avoid hospitals like the plague.
Unfortunately, increasing drug concerns, mental health issues, attempted suicides and other high risk behaviours mean that hospitals have been forced to view security fencing very seriously.
Hospitals must protect against those trying to break in and also guard against those who are intent on self-harm or who are not behaving in rational ways.
Promax 358 Security Mesh is designed to make climbing all but impossible and is also highly resistant to cutting tools.
The 358 mesh is also highly attractive and works well to reduce the prison-like institutional atmosphere.
The Promax mesh and T-post system offers highly secure, cost-effective, and attractive perimeter fencing up to 4.8 metres in height. The Promax system is designed to easily accommodate extra security features such as razor wire.
Schools are often seen as a soft target for theft, vandalism, graffiti, and arson.
Road safety, especially around young children near busy roads, is also a security concern for schools.
However, good security fencing can eliminate many of these issues.
In fact, a parliamentary report found that properly designed perimeter fencing in schools can reduce arson and breaking and entering by 50%, vandalism by 71%, and trespass by 88%.
Well designed school security fencing allows clear surveillance of those entering and leaving the grounds.
Locking security gates allow staff to verify visitors and yet permit exit in emergency situations. Yet, no one wants school to look like a prison so attractive design is also crucial.
Protective Fencing recommends the following as part of your school security system:
Security fencing for zoos revolves around two key requirements: preventing animals from escaping and protecting visitors from potentially dangerous interactions with animals.
Fences that prevent people climbing into the animal enclosures or putting their hands into dangerous situations are just as important as preventing animals from escaping.
Yet, clear visibility is also essential for a satisfactory visitor experience.
Protective fencing can achieve this with a wide range of mesh sizes that are appropriate for each situation.
