Your estate’s most impactful security component

Residential Security Handbook 2021: Secure Living Residential Estate (Industry)

Although integrated security technologies assist in creating a secure perimeter, it is still the physical fence that performs the most important function. For security estates, it is paramount that the chosen fence must fulfil all these requirements:

• Contribute aesthetically to the appearance of an estate.

• Send a clear message that security is taken seriously.

• Channel entry into the estate through secure and monitored control points.

• Delay breach attempts so perpetrators are apprehended before they get in.

• Keep unauthorised persons out.

• Allow visibility through the fence to assess security situations in surrounding environments.

Betafence’s Betaview range ticks all these boxes and is ideal for lifestyle, security and residential estates. It is an aesthetic security fencing system, known for its strength, high levels of security and quality.

Features and benefits

• Small apertures make the fence hard to cut and climb.

• Fence delivers a clear view of your surroundings.

• Tamper-resistant posts and fixings.

• Internationally backed 10-year guarantee.

• Panel widths comply with the 3 m wide insulator spacing requirement for compliance with electric fence installations.

• Manufactured in South Africa.

Tamper-resistant posts and fixings

Bekafix Secure posts are designed to resist against tampering and attempts to pry the panel loose from the post. The fence is safely tucked behind the lip of the post and secured with specialised fixators, firmly bolted through the post using stainless steel security bolts and shear-off nuts.

Betaview is now available in two coating options to accommodate the different corrosive environments found in South Africa. Betaview OPTIMA is an affordable option for inland areas with low-to-medium corrosivity, while Betaview (standard) will stand the test of time in high to extreme corrosive environments.
