Perimeter is the first point of access control and intrusion detection. Gallagher offers a range of perimeter security technologies including software controlled or standalone electric fences through to ‘no-feel’ disturbance sensors which can be applied to site perimeter whether that’s a fence, building walls or a roof top.
Gallagher’s security electric fence systems are safe, effective and reliable perimeter solutions, configurable for any type and size of business. These systems are founded on two core principles: deterrence and detection. Attempts to breach the perimeter by would-be intruders or escapees are deterred by a regulated electric pulse sent around the perimeter fence line approximately every second. These pulses give a short, safe shock. The electric fence system also detects attempts to breach the perimeter, differentiating between serious breaches and disturbances by wildlife, birds or weather conditions.
Our custom-built perimeter security solutions include slim-line standalone, retrofit or Walltop electric fence systems for small commercial applications (Medal). We also offer robust systems suited to the rigorous requirements of high-risk security installations (Trophy FT or Trophy 6) such as power and fuel utility sites, military installations and prisons.
The Gallagher Trophy FT system enables full configuration, control and monitoring of the electric fence system through Command Centre software. It offers advanced multi-zone protection on single or multiple geographically distributed sites and can be integrated with other security systems such as imaging systems, intruder alarm or access control, alarm monitoring and signalling.
Working with world-class technology partners, Gallagher also offers comprehensive perimeter security solutions through multiple perimeter security technologies, for example, tautwire, fibre optic cable (buried and/or fence mounted) and disturbance sensor technologies.
