Definitions

  • the present invention relates to security fences and walls and in particular to a security apparatus which may be secured to the top of a security fence or wall.
  • the overhanging portion is normally designed to be flexible, and therefore to move, when people attempt to climb it, thereby upsetting their balance and hand holds. Furthermore, it is know to provide a coil of razor wire fixed within the shape of the overhanging portion and/or provide a coil of razor wire that sits directly on the top of the frame of the overhanging portion, at an approximate 90° angle to the plane of the frame. For example, see United Kingdom Registered Design No. 2061635 and United States Design Patent Nos. 424702 and 429342 .
  • the document WO200413650 discloses a security apparatus which comprises the features of the preamble of the independent claim 1.
  • These previously proposed security toppings comprise an overhanging portion and at least a single coil of razor wire, one of the coils is fixed on top of the security topping.
  • These toppings have been used on detention facilities and are designed to hinder progress from the side of the overhanging portion of detainees.
  • the coil on top of the overhanging portion introduces a potential danger due to movement caused by the flexing of the overhang.
  • An aim of the present invention is to provide a security apparatus that overcomes the disadvantages discussed above.
  • the present invention is directed to a security apparatus comprising a plurality of brackets for securing to the top of a fence or wall at spaced intervals along the length thereof, each bracket has a lower portion which is intended for securing to the fence or wall and a curved portion extends upwardly and away from the upper end of the lower portion, a metal mesh is secured between the brackets to provide a curved overhang which is intended to extend along the top of the fence or wall on the side of the fence or wall open to attack, a back support that extends upwardly from the upper end of the lower portion, and a coil of razor wire secured at least to the back support and held there by at least one line wire between the upwardly extending back supports.
  • the extending back support is cranked, with the razor wire coil positioned towards, or at, the rear of the overhanging portion and having support on line wires. This provides the advantage that when the bracket, and especially its overhanging portion, moves it allows the razor wire coil to move with it.
  • the extension of the back support is positioned at less than a 60° angle to the plane of the brackets. More preferably the angle is from 30°- 50°. This provides the advantage that the razor coil wire is positioned further away from the side of attack.
  • the razor wire coil is secured at more than one point. More preferably it is secured to the back support and also to the overhanging portion.
  • one or more parallel rails are provided for securing the mesh and the razor wire to. This provides the advantage of more support to the razor wire coil.
  • the metal mesh is an expanded metal mesh, defining sets of closely spaced louvers running parallel to the top of the fence or wall, with the louvers on the portions of the mesh secured to the upright portions of the brackets sloping downwardly towards the side open to attack.
  • This provides the advantage that the louvers will not provide a grip for scaling the security apparatus.
  • brackets are produced from spring steel. This provides the advantage that, when an attempt at scaling the security apparatus is made, they will collapse, but also spring back into place when the scaling attempt ceases.
  • Figure 1 shows a security apparatus comprising a bracket (2) for securing to the top of a wall or fence (not shown), the intended top of which is curved to form an overhanging portion.
  • the bracket (2) is secured to the top of a wall or fence by way of suitable fastening means, for example security bolts (4).
  • a welded metal mesh (6) is secured between the brackets (2) so as to complete the overhanging portion.
  • the welded metal mesh (6) is secured to the brackets by way of suitable fastening means, for example security bolts (8).
  • Horizontal rails (10) also run between the brackets (2) and above the welded metal mesh (6).
  • Upwardly extending back supports (12) are secured to the brackets (2) by way of suitable fastening means, for example security bolts (4).
  • a line wire (14) is secured between the upwardly extending back portions (12) by way of a wire fixing means (16).
  • a razor wire coil (18) is positioned towards the rear of the overhanging portion.
  • Figure 2 shows a side view of the security apparatus and illustrates that the rear bottom part of the razor coil wire (18) is secured to the back portion (12) by bolt (16), and also the front bottom part is secured to the bracket (2) by bolt (8) which is attached through a rail (10).
  • the back portion (12) has a bottom part (20) that is parallel to the bracket (12) and a top part (22) angled rearwardly. The angle ⁇ between the top and bottom parts (20, 22) can be varied depending upon the position required for the razor wire coil (18).
  • Figure 4 is the view of the security apparatus from the front or intended angle of attack. As can be seen, the razor wire coil (18) is clearly mounted away from the front. If the security apparatus is made of spring steel and a potential scaler grabs the front of the apparatus the flexing of the structure will now bring the razor wire down on top of the scaler.
  • the welded metal mesh comprises a series of parallel wires (20) interconnected by web portions (22).
  • the mesh (6) is formed from metal sheet of about 3 mm thickness and the spacing between the parallel wires (20) is of the order of 6 mm wide.
  • the mesh is made of metal of sufficient strength to resist manual deformation of the wires (20).
  • the wire mesh (6) is secured by rails (10) running above and secured to the brackets (2).
