Security Fencing
High-security perimeter fencing for critical infrastructure, data centers, government facilities, and industrial sites.
When a perimeter breach means regulatory fines, data loss, or physical danger, standard fencing is not enough. Ideal Fencing Corp installs high-security perimeter systems — anti-climb mesh, palisade, welded steel panels, and 358 mesh — for the facilities that cannot afford a gap in their defense. We are licensed in 13 states, carry $25M+ bonding capacity, and our crews hold OSHA 30-Hour certifications required for work at critical infrastructure sites.
High-Security Systems We Install
**358 Anti-Climb Mesh**: The standard for correctional, military, and critical infrastructure perimeters. The 3-inch by 0.5-inch by 8-gauge mesh pattern makes hand and foot holds virtually impossible. We install 358 mesh panels in heights from 8 to 12 feet with Y-arm or cranked-arm extensions for razor coil. All panels are hot-dip galvanized with optional polyester powder coating.
**Welded Steel Panel Systems**: Heavy-duty welded wire and steel bar panels for industrial perimeters, energy facilities, and water treatment plants. Available in flat-top, spear-top, and curved-top profiles. Panel widths of 6 to 8 feet with concealed fasteners to prevent tampering.
**Palisade Fencing**: Steel palisade with pointed or triple-pointed pale tops for high-visibility deterrence. Commonly used at substations, pump stations, and utility infrastructure where both security and visual deterrence are priorities.
**Anti-Ram and Blast-Rated Systems**: For government and defense facilities, we install ASTM F2656-rated anti-ram barriers integrated with perimeter fencing, tested to stop a 15,000-pound vehicle at speeds up to 50 mph.
Who We Serve
Our security fencing clients include tier-one data center operators in Hillsboro and Aurora, federal facilities in Colorado and New Mexico, energy infrastructure across Utah and Idaho, and water treatment plants in every state we operate. We understand the compliance requirements that come with these facilities — from NERC CIP standards for energy infrastructure to TIA-942 physical security requirements for data centers.
Background-Checked, Cleared Crews
Every crew member assigned to a high-security project undergoes a background check. For facilities requiring escort-only access, zero-photography policies, or after-hours work windows, we build those constraints into our project schedule from day one — not as an afterthought that delays your timeline.
Design, Engineering, and Compliance
We work with your security consultants and integrators to ensure fencing systems coordinate with detection zones, camera sight lines, and access control points. Our in-house design team produces engineered drawings with wind load calculations, footing specifications, and finish schedules. We document every installation with geo-tagged photos, as-built drawings, and material certifications.
Investment and Timeline
High-security fencing projects typically range from $65 to $180 per linear foot depending on the system specified, height, and site conditions. A 1,500-foot data center perimeter with 358 mesh, razor coil, and integrated detection conduit typically runs 4 to 6 weeks from mobilization. We provide phased installation plans when the facility must remain operational throughout construction.
