Up Your Security With Electric Fencing
If you are in charge of a building containing sensitive information or highly valuable materials or consumer products, you need to make sure that they remain safe no matter what, and that means electric fencing. Conventional fencing, no matter how much barbed wire you coat it with, or how often you coat it with anti-theft paint, will always be something criminals can make their way over. With electric fencing, they don’t have the luxury of taking their time; the electric shock running through their body will incapacitate them briefly and will definitely make them think twice. Commonly electric fencing is used for livestock and keeping people off private land, effectively it teaches you not to trespass by pain. The shock will mentally make you think twice about trying to get in and entirely destroy the idea you have of trying to break into a warehouse, for the sake of example. If the criminals roll up to your fencing to discover it is electric fencing, they are unlikely to try and scale it due to the pain they will experience and the higher likelihood of being caught. As a result, you have already been able to deter common criminals from breaking in, which is a definite risk reduction on your part that you should be proud of.
More advanced criminals will know about your electric fencing prior to attacking and will plan accordingly, this means negating the shock through the use of rubber gloves and other such ways of resisting the electricity. This does not automatically mean that they are going to be able to scale the electric fencing though, what it does mean is that you have to make it as impossible to make it over the electric fencing as possible, including more conventional methods such as coating the top with barbed wire. Keeping an eye on the electric fencing with CCTV is also important, meaning you can catch the criminals out in the process of scaling the electric fencing and sound the alarm. On average, this is bound to keep all but the most advanced criminals out of your facility.
