Aside from using wire mesh panels as infills for outdoor fences and rails, this metal fabrication can add security and safety to several other areas. It offers a lot more protection and durability than chain link fencing, making it ideal for some outdoor and indoor applications. More often, you will find wire mesh panels being used in commercial or industrial settings, but it can also reinforce a few residential security measures. Take a look at how you can benefit from these security uses for wire mesh panels, and get in touch with Hercules Custom Iron for your specialty project!
Storage Lockers
Wire mesh panels can be installed into more modular enclosures that work well as storage lockers. These can be found in multi-dwelling type residences, such as apartments, where tenants may need additional on-site but out-of-unit storage. Some parking areas can also provide tenants with access to storage lockers for those with bicycles. Creating a storage locker or cell with wire mesh is far more secure than chain link material, which can be damaged and broken into by someone with bolt cutters and ill-intent.
Building Access Cage
Some industrial or commercial sites receive many visitors to their locations. Additionally, they need to be aware of who has access to the facilities as there could be a lot of dangerous or expensive equipment and inventory that needs surveillance. For these places, a driver cage made from wire mesh panels could be an effective measure to add to the entrance. Visitors can step into a pre-defined area at a facility’s opening and conduct their business with the on-site staff. They wouldn’t be able to roam about the facility freely, or they would need to wait for someone to grant them access before being let through the gate.
Machinery and Equipment Guards
Wire mesh panels offer plenty of ventilation while maintaining excellent security for outdoor machinery, such as large AC units or power transformers. However, many people can overlook bringing this benefit indoors. Commercial or industrial facilities can employ systems of cages and guards for the machinery and equipment used in their operations. Automated machinery in factories can be fenced off for limited access. It prevents people from both tampering with the critical equipment and getting too close, which could cause injury. Physical network data servers need physical guarding and protection, as well. Wire mesh panels can secure the hardware while allowing for ample air-circulation to help keep the servers cool.
