How Effective Is Razor Wire

Criminals look for the easiest targets. Admittedly, if they are determined to enter a property, even the tightest security measures will not stop them from trying but adding barbed and razor wire to a fence is an effective deterrent.

Barbed wire and razor ribbon fences are popular choices for fencing, and for good reason. Why? Discover the 4 main advantages of barbed wire and razor strip fencing.

1. Versatile

Barbed wire and razor strip fencing are used successfully in a variety of environments including industrial areas, residential areas, agriculture, and more. You can use barbed wire and razor wire fencing anywhere you want to keep other people or animals out. Razor wire is often found on top of chain link fences, but it can also be used on top of concrete walls and in other applications. In addition, fences made entirely of barbed wire with razor tape rolled around the top can form a considerable barrier.

The other good news is that barbed wire and razor strap fencing can be moved, reused or even recycled as required. These incredibly versatile security options can be part of any security plan and play an important role in deterring intruders.

2. Unmatched protection

Barbed wire is wire twisted together with barbs that protrude from the fence a minimum distance of only 5-6 inches. On the other hand, razor wire uses razor blades scattered along the wire. Razors are very sharp and dangerous.

Both types of wire are almost impossible to cut without very specific tools. Any person or animal attempting to cross the fence could end up being injured. The presence of barbed wire and razor wire fencing will certainly deter anyone from entering your property and keep the animals safely in their space.

3. Cost-effective

Barbed wire and razor strip fencing are inexpensive to install and maintain but offer great protection. You don't have to invest thousands of dollars in home security and still enjoy the benefits of a well-protected home.

4. Quick installation

Installing barbed wire and razor strip fencing takes no more than a few days. This means you won't waste valuable time. All that is required is the barbed wire fence posts and the wire simply stretches over the posts and secures into place. Razor wire fencing is slightly more complicated as it is sharper and more difficult to handle. However, it can still be installed relatively quickly compared to other types of fencing.

Barbed wire and razor tape fencing have other benefits, such as being easy to customize. In many cases, you can choose the length of the barbs or razor blades and the spacing at which they are placed on the wire.

Overall, barbed wire and razor strip fencing are excellent choices for protecting any property. It will provide you with peace of mind and protection without stretching your budget. Ready to discuss your barbed wire and razor strip fencing project?
