When selecting high-security fencing for your data centre, there are various options to consider. However, the two primary choices are palisade security fencing and mesh security fencing. For valuable assets, we recommend a minimum security level of LPS 1175 B3 (previously SR2).

Both types of fencing have their unique benefits, but their ultimate purpose is to protect your data centre.

Palisade fencing has become a preferred choice for data centres due to its imposing appearance. It features a robust, industrial look compared to mesh fencing. Additionally, security toppings can be added to further enhance its effectiveness. Curving the pales outwards makes the fence even more intimidating and perceived to be even harder to climb.

Palisade fencing is an ideal solution for sites with uneven ground or a gradient since it can follow the contours of the ground. In contrast, rigid mesh panels need to be stepped or dug into the ground.
