Court Security offers the
ultimate in security when it provides electric fencing
to protect your premises. Designed for commercial
premises the electric fence is a fence that sits inside
the existing mesh fence (as pictured below) it deters
intruders by giving them a sharp, painful but safe
shock.
Used in conjunction with a Court
Security monitored alarm system the fence detects any
tampering or attempted break-ins and reports them to the
monitoring station. It is important to understand that
all electric fences are designed installed and tested
compliant to the requirements of the Australian
Standards AS3129 & AS3106.
