Choosing a High Security Chain Link Fence

Monday, June 30th, 2014

When it comes to ensuring your facility’s safety, a classic high security chain link fence could be the perfect solution. Some facilities need to be kept secure from intruders and other threats, but they do not need their fence to be crash-rated or fortified with other security integration measures, such as guard booths. Though a chain link fence may seem to be one of the more basic options for a high security fence, it nevertheless could be just what your facility needs.

 

High security chain link fences are, for one thing, a lower maintenance option than some of the other fence varieties out there. Hercules Fence knows how to properly treat the metal that is used in the manufacture of your chain link fence so that is does not experience rusting or other weather related damage. Because of the mesh-like quality of chain link fences, they do not require extensive treatments or paint jobs in order to cover their surface area.

 

Another benefit of a high security chain link fence is that you can have Hercules Fence customize the level of security it provides. Choose from three different gauges ranging from thin, medium, to thick that can determine the strength of the metal. Regardless of gauge size, the durability of a high security chain link fence is unquestionable.

 

Unlike many other varieties of fence, a chain link fence provides one very specific aspect of security to your facility: vision. A chain link fence not only keeps trouble out, but also allows you to have a clear view to see what kind of trouble might be trying to get it. This aspect of chain link fencing has long been held one of its most beneficial security features.

How Do I Add Extra Security Integration Measures to My High Security Fence?

Tuesday, June 24th, 2014

A high security fence is a must-have for any facility looking to keep its inhabitants and its contents safe from intruders. Fences can be built that can withstand crashing cars, that are climb-proof, and more. But Hercules Fence knows that for your high security facility, there may sometimes be a reason to be even more cautious. That is why, with your fence installation, Hercules Fence can also provide security integration measures to keep you safe.

Guard Booths

For any official government building, it is paramount that those entering the grounds have a valid form of identification. The safety of the facility and the people inside depends on it. Sometimes, an intruder will not attempt to sneak in to your facility, but to enter through the main doors under false pretenses. Having a live guard, and not just an electronic system, can make all the difference; a guard will come to know people’s names and faces and will be alert to any suspicious behavior. But a guard cannot simply stand out in the open; to keep them safe and secure, a guard booth is a necessary component of security integration to provide.

Turnstiles

As another added form of protection, a turnstile can be an efficient and effective way of keeping out intruders. Turnstiles provide yet another barrier of security integration that any intruder would have to pass through, and they can be reinforced and customized to meet your specific security needs. Along with a guard booth, a turnstile is an essential part of your security system.

Why Should I Install a Crash-Rated Fence Around My High Security Facility?

Monday, June 16th, 2014

A fence can serve a variety of purposes depending on its location. For the residential home, a fence might beautify and add curb appeal. For a commercial district, a fence might prevent intruders from climbing in. But for your high security facility, you need to be aware of the multitude of risks you and your colleagues may face that will not be addressed by just any fence. A crash-rated fence might be the key to you and your facility’s safety.

 

Intruders don’t always go about things subtly. If they are aware that your electronic security system would pick up on any suspicious activity, they might bypass that altogether and attempt to use vehicles to crash through your security fence and gain access to restricted areas. Or, it could simply be that you’re aware of the risk anyone takes on the road and want to keep your facility safe in the event of a car accident that might cause a normal fence to be damaged.

 

Investing in a crash-rated fence ensures the highest level of safety and security you could ask for. Crash-rated fences can withstand the weight and velocity of vehicles, keeping the fence intact on impact. K4, K8, and K12-rated fences are your strongest options in crash-rated security.

Knowing Your Strengths: Security Audits and High Security Fencing

Monday, June 9th, 2014

As the old saying goes, an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure. This very principal applies to doing a security audit for your facility. It is an essential step to take in order to discover if and where you have any weak points in your security system, and it can show you exactly what you need to do next in order to address them, such as installing a high security fence.

When should I perform a security audit?

Too often, we only realize we’re in need of something when it’s too late to do anything about it. Don’t wait for crime to come to you; security audits should happen early and often in order to ensure the safety of your facility. While a security audit after a crime is committed could help you target a specific area, it is better to know beforehand where you’re most vulnerable.

What should I be looking for?

Look for spots where intruders might be likely to enter, particularly where landscaping might give them an opportunity to hide before going on to the property. Make sure entrances to buildings are either secured or physically guarded at all times, and that security cameras have a clear view of the entire property.

What do I do if I discover a security risk?

The measures you take to address a security risk depend on what exactly that risk is, but for most security risks on the grounds of a property, installing a High Security Fence can be the most logical move. High Security Fences come in a variety of designs that incorporate both functionality and aesthetic appeal in order to create the ideal solution for your property’s needs. HF High Security offers many different High Security Fence models, including Anti-Climb fences, Non-Climb fences, and Impasse fences with either Stronghold, Gauntlet, or Trident tops designed to keep out any and all intruders. Chain link or barred, these High Security Fences are the best way to give you peace of mind and ensure that your facility is kept safe.

High Security Fencing

Performing routine security audits is what you can do for your facility or property. For what you can’t do, HF High Security can offer insight and assistance and help you decide what fencing option would best serve your needs. If you know you are performing a security audit and want to discuss the possibility of installing High Security Fencing, call us at 1-800-395-9597 or visit our homepage, www.herculeshighsecurity.com for more information.
