Ropebarrier Systems

Heavy-duty rope and concrete post barrier combining passive physical obstruction with an active shock deterrent.

Overview

The Rope Barrier Shock Fence is a heavy-duty perimeter protection system designed primarily for large-animal and wildlife applications. It combines a substantial physical rope barrier supported by large concrete posts with an active energized rope barrier. The passive component provides a visible and substantial physical obstruction, while the active component provides a shock deterrent — delivering both physical and energized perimeter protection customized to the target animal, terrain, perimeter length, required barrier height, and site conditions.

Typical Construction

Passive Barrier Components

  • Large reinforced concrete posts
  • Heavy-duty ropes
