What exactly is an electric fence?

Well, firstly, before we even begin, an Electric Fence is not just a "shock machine", it's actually a brilliant Perimeter Alarm System IF INSTALLED CORRECTLY AND PROPERLY!!

Secondly, when COMBINED with a decent CCTV Surveillance Camera System, your Perimeter Security becomes a huge deterrent and fantastic Alarm System!!

So, lets get to the basics now:

The SANS 10222 in South Africa defines an Electric Fence as an electric barrier consisting of one or more conductors, erected to prevent the trespass of persons or animals.

1.

Energizer powers the fence with batery back-up

The Energizer plugs into 220v and has battery back up should the power go off.

2.

Ht Cables in conduit take power to fence

Three or more HT cables connect the energizer to the actual electric fence.

Brackets are mounted on walls / fences

In fact, over 60% of our new work / clients come from so called "COC'd" fences!!  Once someone sees that they were going to sleep and their electric fence wouldn't alarm properly if cut or tampered with, we gain an instant new client and our No Contract Month to Month Maintenance Agreements are really growing much faster than we ever imagined!! They start from a mere R250-00 per month and include many advantages besides saving you money long term - and more importantly, your security systems cannot be off longer than the specified visit intervals!

Don't become a statistic that reads: "We got broken into and the electric fence had not been working correctly! Wonder how long it was like that?!"

All we ask is a few moments of your time, to assess your Electric Fence WITH YOU, and actually show you in person by touching wires or cutting wires that it WON'T ALARM IF SOMEONE IS BREAKING IN!!
