About this product
The EARTH ROD is a perimeter fence component. It forms part of a perimeter security installation, working with the other fence parts to protect your boundary.
What to check before you buy
Measure your full perimeter and note corners, gates and any changes in height, because these determine how much material you need. Exposed parts face the weather every day, so a neat, well-tensioned and well-supported installation will last longer and need less maintenance. Secom World can supply and install it for you, so ask us to look at your site if you would like advice on the setup.
