The security fencing manufacturer Zaun is supplying its 3.6m high ArmaWeave Plus fencing system for a new data centre in the Home Counties. Zaun subsidiary Binns Fencing will install almost 650m of the highest-spec fencing.
The makers say that the properties of ArmaWeave, pictured, add substantial resistance to cutting attacks with hand, powered and non-contact tools. The tight mesh pattern provides no climbing aids, again limiting the potential for intrusion. The firm adds that a differing mesh pattern allows the mesh to be raked, limiting the need for stepping panels across undulations in ground. The mesh reduces installation costs significantly it is claimed compared with standard welded mesh systems.
Zaun has supplied 250m of enhanced 2.4m high ArmaWeave and just under 100m of SR1 rated 358 fencing around an internal compound. The total order, including security gates and bollards, could reach £700,000.
