Like federal buildings, prisons need high-security fencing that is durable and low maintenance. At Hercules High Security, we offer a variety of fences that are K-rated and effective. Prisons focus on keeping prisoners inside the facility but should always be prepared for someone coming from the outside.

K-Ratings and Why They Are Important For Prisons
The k-rating is a rating system designed by the Department of Defense for the amount of protection a fence provides against a vehicle. The different k-ratings indicate at what maximum speed a fence will stop a 15,000-pound vehicle. Depending on the prison’s security level, our experts will help you create a fencing plan that includes the highest K-rating needed. Your high-security fencing plan can include different K-rated fences in different areas of your prison.
Guard Booths
Hercules High Security offers guard booth structures you can arrange on the property of your prison facility to facilitate entry and exit. We include bollards, turnstile gates, and other entry security technology. With a combination of strategically placed guard booths and bollards, your prison will remain protected both inside and out.
Anti-Terrorism Cables and Additional Add-Ons
For your high-security fencing, we offer anti-climb technology in a variety of styles and customizations. Razor wire and barbed wire are classic choices to add to the top of your high-security fencing. Razor wire is more dangerous to potential escapees because it has thicker razor blades and has a thicker metal cable that hardly bends. We also offer anti-terrorism cables that can be installed onto any of our fences. Anti-terrorism cables are heavy metal cables that absorb the impact of a vehicle or accident without bending the fence. This makes them incredibly useful for roads with high vehicular traffic or a facility with possible attacks. To take it up a notch, we offer wound anti-terrorism cables that release upon impact, potentially causing severe harm to whoever crashed. Our experts at Hercules High Security will help you find the right combination of high-security fencing for your prison.
