Case Study – High Security Prison Fencing Project
Project Overview
MFR Corp was selected to provide a high security fencing solution for a state correctional facility in the Midwestern United States. The project required more than 2,000 linear feet of perimeter fencing designed to meet strict Department of Corrections security standards.
Security Challenge
Correctional facilities demand some of the most secure fencing systems in the world. The client needed a barrier that could:
– Prevent climbing, cutting, or tampering attempts
– Withstand harsh weather and constant use over time
– Integrate with existing surveillance and access control systems
– Meet all state and federal correctional facility compliance requirements
MFR Solution
MFR engineered and installed a welded wire mesh high security fence system specifically designed for correctional applications. Key features included:
– Anti-Climb Mesh: Tight mesh spacing prevents footholds and climbing attempts
– Tamper-Resistant Hardware: Specialized fasteners make disassembly nearly impossible
– Durable Finish: Galvanized and powder-coated panels provide corrosion resistance
– Height & Reinforcement: Extended fence height and reinforced posts deliver maximum perimeter control
The modular design also allowed for efficient installation within the facility’s strict scheduling and access requirements.
Results & Benefits
The completed installation delivered:
– A secure perimeter meeting Department of Corrections compliance standards
– Enhanced protection against climbing and cutting attempts
– A low-maintenance system designed for decades of reliable performance
– Seamless integration with the facility’s existing surveillance system
The project reinforced MFR’s reputation as a trusted partner for high security fencing projects in correctional, government, and industrial sectors.
