A safety fence comprising a first and a second post. An upper rail is securable to upright members of the first post and the second post in a horizontally orientation. A mesh has an upper end slidably coupled to the upper rail. The mesh has a retracted configuration where it is collapsed and retained next to the first post, and a deployed configuration where it is extended between the first and second posts in a taut configuration. At least one tensioning member has a first end fixed to the first post and is releasably securable to the second post such that the tensioning member may be tensioned between the first and second posts. The tensioning member, when tensioned between the first and second posts with the mesh in its deployed configuration, provides horizontal load support to the mesh.

The invention encompasses a substantially animal-proof barrier that includes (a) two supports that are laterally spaced apart to define a substantially vertical plane there between; (b) fencing material that is attached to each of the supports and spans the defined substantially vertical plane to form a simple barrier that has a top edge, a bottom edge, a front surface and a back surface, wherein the simple barrier divides a domain into a first area and a second area; and (c) a hood having an inner surface, the hood originating from the top edge of the simple barrier. An angle formed by the inner surface of the hood and the front surface of the simple barrier measures about 10 degrees to about 80 degrees, such that a channel having a substantially V-shaped cross section is formed.

The present invention relates to a device for installing a fence. In most embodiments the device comprises three main areas: the driver area, the installer area, and the storage area. The driver area is where the driver of the device is located and comprises the necessary components to drive the device, such as a motor and steering mechanism. The installer area is where the fence installer is located, and in most embodiments is placed above the driver area so that the installer can access the top rail of the fence during installation. The storage area is where the fencing material is placed, often times as a roll. This roll is fed out of the storage area and installed by the installer while the device is driven down the length of the fence. This device beneficially decreases the amount of time and man-power required to install a fence.

An anti-climbing device on a fence (7) with angled arms (2) as protective devices having a planar element (1) fastened to the protective device. The planar element is connected to the protective device via force sensors (3). The force sensors are operatively connected to an evaluation unit (4). The force sensors are load cells which predominantly detect loading or load reduction in the direction of gravity. The planar element is fastened along the plane spanned by the arms and the planar element is connected via the force sensors to the arms.

The invention encompasses a substantially animal-proof barrier that includes (a) two supports that are laterally spaced apart to define a substantially vertical plane there between; (b) fencing material that is attached to each of the supports and spans the defined substantially vertical plane to form a simple barrier that has a top edge, a bottom edge, a front surface and a back surface, wherein the simple barrier divides a domain into a first area and a second area; and (c) a hood having an inner surface, the hood originating from the top edge of the simple barrier. An angle formed by the inner surface of the hood and the front surface of the simple barrier measures about 10 degrees to about 80 degrees, such that a channel having a substantially V-shaped cross section is formed.

In one embodiment, a mounting device engageable with a fence includes a mounting platform from which a first engaging member and a second engaging member extend. The first engaging member includes a number of receptacles configured to receive a portion of a fence wire, and the second engaging member includes a number of receptacles configured to receive a portion of a fence wire. In one form, a portion of the first engaging member including the number of receptacles is movable relative to the mounting platform and a portion of the second engaging member including the number of receptacles is movable relative to the mounting platform. The mounting device may be used, for example, in connection with the positioning of one or more items relative to the fence.

A wire netting device, in particular safety net device, includes at least two mutually engaging net elements, at least one net element of which is produced from at least one single wire, a wire bundle, a wire strand, a wire rope and/or another longitudinal element with at least one wire that is made at least partially of a high-tensile steel, the wire comprises at least one corrosion protection, in particular a corrosion protection layer and a portion of the wire (12a-g), in particular at least a portion of a wire mesh implemented of the wire, with the corrosion protection, in particular the corrosion protection layer, in a test run by an alternating climate test has a corrosion resistance of more than 1,680 hours, preferably more than 2,016 hours, advantageously more than 2,520 hours, preferentially more than 3,024 hours and particularly preferably more than 3,528 hours.

A collar assembly for retrofitting a barrier to one or more bollards comprises a barrier and at least one collar adapted to fit around each of bollard. Each collar comprises two or more openings. Each opening is configured to receive a barrier mounting device or a securing element. Each collar has at least one securing element configured to affix the collar to the one or more bollards. Each collar has at least one barrier mounting device configured to attach the barrier to the one or more bollards. The barrier is mounted to each barrier mounting device.

A wire netting, in particular a safety net, includes a plurality of helices which are braided with one another and at least one of which is manufactured of at least one single wire, a wire bundle, a wire strand, a wire rope and/or another longitudinal element with at least one wire, and which includes at least one first leg, at least one second leg and at least one bending region connecting the first leg and the second leg to one another. In a longitudinal view in parallel to a longitudinal direction of the helix, the bending region includes at least one bending zone with a bending curvature and at least one first transition zone which is connected to the first leg and has a first transition curvature that differs from the bending curvature.

A razor wire barrier is disclosed. In some embodiments, an enclosure includes a plurality of panel sections rotatably coupled together, at least one panel section of the plurality of panel sections including a first frame component directly coupled to a second frame component of an adjacent panel section. The enclosure may further include a razor wire panel extending across each of plurality of panel sections.
