Heras Contour

This is a self-adjusting Railing; a remarkable innovation allowing traditionally styled railings to follow the contours of the ground without the need for costly surveying and fabrication expense associated with Bespoke raked panels.

Apex

This Railing System is designed with security and strength in mind, formed from hollow bar verticals with a patented weld free joint system giving a more aesthetically pleasing finish to the overall panel. The panels can be made in both mild steel and stainless steel to suit a variety of applications.

Expamet

The Expanded Metal company is a manufacturer of Security products where the mesh is formed from slit & stretched steel plate, creating the strength benefits of a weld free system, giving good visibility & high strength, with the ability of the fence remaining an effective deterrent even after an impact.

Duralock

This is an Internationally installed Fencing system formed from stabilised PVC-u, traditionally used in the Equine market for Race courses and Studs, but now its inherent safety properties are valued in Schools, Recreation facilities and Parks.

In addition, wire free GSM units are now becoming popular and are an obvious choice where hard-wiring is either not possible or too costly an option. Also available are Rising Arm Barriers and Hydraulic Bollards for Traffic Control suitable for Residential developments up to Anti-Ram Raid for high security establishments.

Zareba

Manufacturers of the IP 6000 Security Electric Fence system, the ultimate line in security which acts as a formidable deterrent with a short, safe high-voltage shock. This system can help to prevent access, but also create an Alarm condition should the wires be cut or when a shock event is detected, allowing Security to be alerted to specific zones and moving CCTV to automatically track the breach. In addition the Guard Tower Perimeter Security system can work with or without providing an electric shock, but can pin point an attempted breach to within a 3m section, with an alarm resolution down to a wire & post location. Both systems are not subject to the many false alarms that other detection Systems suffer from, giving improved customer confidence and better security.
