09. HiSec Prison

HiSec Prison, is a NOMs approved security mesh fencing system, designed specifically for the use on the perimeter of prisons and mental health units (MHUs).

Each panel is manufactured using the popular ‘358‘ mesh configuration, with wire centres at 76.2mm x 12.7mm. The close mesh configuration makes this mesh fencing system an excellent solution to stop people from getting a foot or finger hold within the apertures of the fence to scale or climb.

Manufactured with 4mm vertical wires and 4mm horizontal wires, the denseness and size of the wires provide a barrier that is difficult to pass narcotics, weapons, mobile phones and other contraband through the fence whilst also ensuring the occupants of the secure unit are kept safely and securely within the grounds of the institution.

All of these features and attributes make HiSec Prison an ideal solution for security applications, reflected by its use by the UK Home Office and the Ministry of Justice (MoJ) for prison facilities in the UK.

Each HiSec Prison 358 welded mesh panel is typically manufactured in 2515mm wide x 5200mm high panels (other heights are available upon request) from pre-galvanised steel wire to BS EN 10244-2 class A Zn95AL5 standards (GalZal®). This galvanised coating specification makes HiSec Prison a relatively maintenance free fencing system.

Panels are fixed to NOMs and Ministry of Justice approved circular posts using full length clamp bars and fixing bolts. Each panel is fixed to the inside or secure side of the posts to prevent tampering.

For additional security it is recommended that HiSec Prison is also installed with the NOMS and Ministry of Justice Approved fence topping FST®. Steel cladding, Privacy Screening and double skin enhancements are also available for additional protection.

Finish

HiSec Prison mesh fencing is manufactured from pre-galvanised GalZal® steel wire in accordance to BS EN 10244-2 class A Zn95AL5 standards with a typical thickness in wire diameter of 275g/m2 (on a 4mm wire). Fences coated in GalZal® do not require additional powder coating as protection.

Additional coating options are also available, if required, please contact [email protected] for details.
