Perimeter security fencing is the first line of defence around an organisation's premises and is therefore vitally important. Furthermore,
it is a significant factor in the first impression made on a visitor,
whether they are welcome or unwelcome.
What many people do not
realise is just how complex the subject of perimeter security is today.
Not only are there legal requirements to be met, but each application
has its own needs - so the solution to the problem is different in every
case.
This specifier's guide to perimeter security fencing
explains the different options available, presents the advantages and
limitations of each, and steers the reader towards making the right
decision that willprovide the necessary level of security at an
acceptable cost and without compromising other areas such as
aesthetics.

School security is a multi-faceted subject. As well as parents expecting their children to be safe from intruders, schools want to prevent truancy by controlling when and where children can leave. In addition, the personal safety of staff and visitors is of considerable concern to Local Education Authorities (LEAs).
Today's schools also contain valuable and portable property that isattractive to thieves, and arson is a significant problem that can, to a large extent, be tackled by preventing unauthorised access. With arson resulting in damage worth around 60million GBP each year through attacks on an average 20 schools per week, improvements here are highly beneficial.
However, schools have to remain an attractive learning environment, and LEAs are being encouraged to open their schools to the wider community.
Given the importance of fencing and the complexity of the context, this specifier's guide to perimeter security fencing for schools explains the different options available, presents the advantages and limitations of each, and steers the reader towards making the right decision that will provide the necessary level of security at an acceptable cost and without compromising other areas such as aesthetics.
