Why 358 Fence for Australian High-Security Projects
358 anti-climb fence — named for its 3" × 0.5" × 8-gauge mesh — is the benchmark product for perimeter security in Australia's correctional, defence, and critical infrastructure sectors. The tight 76.2 × 12.7 mm aperture prevents fingers and toes from gaining purchase, making climbing or cutting the panel with standard tools extremely difficult.
- Standard anti-climb aperture: 76.2 mm (H) × 12.7 mm (W)
- Wire diameter: 4.0 mm (standard) or 5.0 mm (heavy duty)
- Panel heights: 1.8 m, 2.0 m, 2.4 m, 2.7 m, 3.0 m, 3.6 m
- Panel width: 2,500 mm standard (custom widths available)
- Finish: hot-dip galvanised (HDG), powder-coated (RAL), or HDG + powder-coat duplex
- Post options: square hollow section (SHS), round hollow section (RHS), or H-post
