Overview
Wolverhampton-based Zaun provided security mesh fencing to protect Washington DC during the unrest caused by rioters supporting outgoing US President Donald Trump on 6th January 2021.
Zaun’s HiSec 358 mesh has been used in key locations in the US capital by two of their US partners, TCP Security Solutions and ARX Perimeter. TCP supplied Zaun’s SecureGuard system and ARX supplied their High-Security Fencing System, which includes Zaun-manufactured HiSec 358 mesh.
Products
HiSec 358
Perimeter security fencing system specifically designed to repel intruders. Anti-climb properties are provided by the close mesh formation (76.2 x 12.7mm). It is difficult to get a hand-hold within the apertures, stopping intruders from scaling the fencing and gaining entry into the site.
SecureGuard
A total solution to vehicle ingress. It is a high-performance perimeter protection system which immobilises any vehicle attempting to enter high-security areas. Easy to install and erect, it can be used for both temporary solutions and, with shallow foundations and road surfacing anchoring, is suitable for permanent solutions for high-risk areas. It has been proven to withstand multiple vehicle strikes whilst maintaining a secure perimeter. It is easy and cost-effective to transport for locations requiring a non-permanent solution.
