A significant advantage of owning a fence is that it deters trespassers. Adding fence toppers can further heighten your home or business security. Here are some fencing material options to protect your family and assets. 

3 Fencing Materials That Add Security 

1. Barb Wire

This steel fence topper is constructed with sharp edges that make climbing over a fence difficult. It can be added to the top of any fence using barb arms and fasteners, but is commonly used with chain-link fences. There are various types of barb wire, including low-carbon wire and high-tensile, used for different heights and purposes. For example, high-tensile barb wire is much lighter than traditional barb wire, which allows it to be installed higher without causing a fence to lean or buckle over time.

2. Razor Ribbon

Razor ribbon is a steel fencing material with razor-sharp edges curled into ribbon-like segments and installed at the top of a fence to discourage trespassers. It is frequently used at commercial sites, and is sometimes referred to as concertina wire.

3. Custom Gates

Custom gates can be built for homes and businesses that present a better image to the public than wire toppers while also encouraging privacy. Wrought-iron gates can be constructed with pointed vertical rails. Privacy fences can also be installed to include pointed ends. Consult a fencing company about designs and fencing material options to promote better security and appearances.
