Palisade Security Fencing: Stronguard™ RCS
For a strong and robust palisade security fencing option, Barkers’ StronGuard™ RCS is the only standalone PAS68 impact tested palisade security fence. It is also part of our super-durable, aesthetically pleasing range of our renowned StronGuard™ palisade fence.
StronGuardRCS has been designed to protect Critical National Infrastructure from increasingly frequent and severe hostile vehicle attacks. The PAS68 rating that StronGuard RCS achieve is equivalent to the American ASTM F2656 K4 rating
StronGuard™ RCS delivers defence against hostile or accidental vehicular attacks whilst looking like a standard palisade fence. It is commonly seen around valuable assets, such as data centres, where sections of the perimeter are near to roads or entrances.
By being engineered with anti-cut technology, this impact tested fence is resistant to impact from saws, cutting, hammers, jacks, levers, power tools, and hand tools.
This palisade security fencing is easily combined with other security measures which include:
- Security Toppings
- Perimeter Intrusion Detective System (PIDs)
- Electric fences
Having these security measures form a comprehensive physical stronghold.
Barkers is proud to manufacture the only palisade security fencing systems accredited to PAS68 to stop a 7.5-tonne vehicle travelling at 30mph. It achieves this protection without the need to enormous footings.
