Black welded mesh security fence panels with barbed wire

Weldmesh

Anti-climb

Weldmesh fencing

Rigid welded mesh panels with small apertures that are hard to climb or cut, while keeping clear sight lines so nobody can hide behind the fence. Can be topped with barbed or razor wire.

Best for: Critical infrastructure, data and comms sites, and anywhere visibility matters.

Why the install matters

A fence is only as good as how it's put up

Panels that aren't set to the right height, on posts that aren't plumbed and packed properly, look wrong from the day they go in and only get worse. It's one of the most common corners cut on site.

Garrison fence panels sitting below the top of the posts on a commercial site — **Posts below the panels**A quick way to save time on site, but it looks unfinished and weakens the fence line.

RMF Garrison fence with panels and posts finishing flush and true — **Built the RMF way**Posts and panels set out and finished flush, so the fence line reads clean from every angle.

Choosing a system

Match the fence to the risk

A general guide to how our security systems compare. The right answer depends on the site, the threat and the budget, so we'll recommend a system as part of every quote.

System	Security level	Climb and cut resistance	See-through	Typical use
Chainmesh	2 / 5	Low, higher with barbed wire	High	Long boundaries on a budget, compounds, sports
Garrison	3 / 5	Medium	High	Commercial frontages, schools, public spaces
Weldmesh	4 / 5	High, small apertures	High	Critical infrastructure, data and comms sites
Palisade	5 / 5	High, triple-point pales	Medium	Substations, utilities, rail and transport depots

Any system can be upgraded with barbed wire, razor wire or an electric fence top, and paired with automated gates and access control.
