Heras the perimeter protection manufacturer has launched Zenith, its accredited range of mesh fencing. The range complements its accredited entrance control, demarcation and intrusion detection products, the makers add.
The Zenith offers protection against vandalism and intrusion thanks to its anti-climbing 358 mesh, foundations and security toppings, such as barbed wire. Each system has been designed to meet a range of security needs and have been tested by the Building Research Establishment (BRE) to gain security ratings (SR).
The product range include Zenith SR1, Zenith SR2 and Zenith SR3, each offering a different level of protection depending on customer needs. At the lower end the single skin Zenith SR1 protects against opportunist vandalism perhaps in a school; while the more robust, triple skin Zenith SR3 (pictured) protects the most critical assets such as areas within power stations, research centres, oil and gas terminals, military and utility sites. Zenith SR2 is aimed at utilities, offering a midpoint solution which protects against a more determined opportunist attack with tools of a higher mechanical advantage, for example bolt cutters.
As for the design of the range, the Zenith SR2 and Zenith SR3 include two layers of steel mesh panels which are welded together at 90 degrees to each other to provide a more solid construction, as well as extra safeguards against attack. The prefabricated panels require just 11 fixings per post to allow for installation. This also gives the final installation a clean design so it is more aesthetically pleasing than alternative options, the makers add.
Barbora Stewart, UK Marketing Manager at Heras says: “Today more than ever, organisations need to protect their people, premises and other assets from a growing number of security threats. Introducing Zenith fencing means Heras can now offer customers a complete high security solution including fencing, entrance control, detection systems as well as a range of design, installation, maintenance and project management services.”
