Interlocking prestressed concrete panels span between building columns to produce foundation free, smooth face , security walls.
Ideal for
Warehouse Walls
These concrete wall panels are the ideal wall solution for security where the building columns can be used to support the panels.

This provides a secure, smooth wall with the added benefit of protections for the cladding from accidental impact from forklifts operating in the building.
Secure Compound / Yard Walls
Site security can be provided by the use of precast security walling in place of traditional fencing materials. Incorporation of cast fixing sockets enables security wire and lighting to be easily fitted to the walls.

Ensuring that any industrial buildings, machinery and equipment are secure is a vital part of any business. Security walls are designed to be built around a diverse number of infrastructures to provide protection from unlawful intrusion, theft, vandalism and attack.
The robust nature of precast concrete walls makes them ideal for security purposes including boundary perimeter walls, secure compound walls, retail and warehouse walls. Unlike lightweight steel walls, it is not easy for thieves to cut through the dense, durable concrete. In addition, these robust security walls offer greater resistance to vehicle impact damage and the opaque nature of concrete prevents visibility into the secure area.
Here are some examples to give you an idea what options are available when installing a security wall:
