Project Reference: Building D

Client:                       actewAGL

Objective:                 Perimeter Fence Upgrade

Summary:

  • Non-invasive drilling techniques adopted due to significant underground services.
  • Design, Manufacture and Installation of INFINITY™ Palisade Fencing.
  • 3.0m high in Hot Dipped Galvanised Finish topped with 550 Concertina Tigertape razorwire
  • Installation of Gates with facility for electric locking.
  • The Client is now able to install additional electronic security surveillance around the perimeter by utilising the fence framework as the carriageway, without disturbing existing underground services.

The

Challenge

To provide the Client with a secure perimeter as first priority, and in so doing provide a fence framework that allowed the reticulation of services along it's length to accommodate electronic security products. This was critical as to adopt conventional inground conduits was prohibitive due to the massive amount of existing underground services.  


The

Results

INFINITY™ Palisade Fencing was the perfect solution. This unique and innovative fence framework, with it's rails serving as above ground conduits, meant that electrical supply and data could be run to all parts of the perimeter without the need for expensive excavations. Without this capability, all excavations would have been by hand, and the contractor shaved 3 days off his installation time. 

Not only has the INFINITY™ framework saved thousands of dollars now, it future proofs the site if and when the need arises to run additional services. The simple removal of the coverplate allows additional cables to be pulled.

The INFINITY™ design also makes provision for easy retro-fitment of lighting, CCTV and anti-ram cables.
