Pest-Stop Prikka Strip

Product Information

As people have suggested, he advised clear signs & regular photographs to prove I am taking all reasonable precautions to “deter” unauthorised access to my property. Please Note: Where prikla strips are used to protect commercial premises the use of warning signs is strongly recommended. The fence/spikes must not be easily accessible by accident from a public highway. The height is not clearly defined, but, it is governed by the location. I.e. a farmer putting barbed wire on a 3” fence between fields is fine, however a house owner putting spikes on a low fence, on a cut-through where kids pass to school is not deemed acceptable.

Carpet grippers are where you may have a problem with the law. These are illegal to place, especially where someone might be putting their fingers. Types of strips available. We went for rather more substantial metal spikes. Unfortunately the manufacturer supplied us with the warning signs for "razor spikes" (an interesting product developed in South Africa, bloody lethal). I subsequently had complaints made by local residents (the parents, in other words) to the Police, the Local Authority and the HSE. All of which I was succesfully able to have thrown out as I was able to demonstrate that: How effective spikes are, depends on what you are trying to keep out. You are most likely looking for a way to keep out thieves, and as such you want to know how effective the spikes will be. It is crucial to understand that the spikes do not mean the wall is now full proof, and no thief will be able to jump over it. My fence is at the end of a private drive at the side of my neighbour’s property & is high enough to prevent accidental injuries. There is no public right of way & there is no reason for anyone to come close to the fence.Each strip measures 500 x 45mm. Spike height; 15mm. Hinge construction for easy fit to flat or non flat surfaces The sharpness of spikes makes them an effective deterrent. That is if the intruders do not come to the party already prepared to deal with anti-climb spikes. My intention is “not to harm” but simply deter entry using a commercially available product that is highly unlikely to cause major injury to an intruder. I had a very similar problem several years ago with a business premises. Vandals were scaling a wall, causing damage to vehicles and were also posing a risk to themselves by walking up the slope of the wall to bang on the windows of the first floor of a Georgian townhouse (very tall ceilings, narrow wall, significant drop).

Prikla Strip offers a simple, affordable and practical solution for use in any location where you want to deter intruders or animals without using a product which could be life threatening or risk causing serious injury to intruders or pets. For obvious safety reasons, the installation of Prikla Strip at a height of less than head height is not recommended.Anti climbing spikes offer a practical, anti climb deterrent ...protecting your walls, fences, gates and flat roofs against animal or human intruders. Prikka-Strip can be screwed or nailed (rustproof) using the holes provided (more holes can be drilled if needed).
