Most companies make spikes that can be on top of walls. This makes it difficult for anyone to grab the top part of the wall, because of the spikes. Do anti-climb spikes stop thieves and criminals from climbing the wall? The good thing about most types of spikes is that they can fit a wide variety of walls and fences. The compatibility of the wall and the spikes is key to getting a good match. What determines the type of spikes that you use?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.

The unique double-hinge design allows it to be formed neatly on fence tops, pipes and other irregular surfaces. If the barbed wire is not adjoining the highway and an injury results, you could still be faced with a claim for damages under the Occupier Liability Acts. Occupiers of premises have a duty of care, to people entering or using their premises. This duty even extends to trespassers, although it is not as extensive as it is to people lawfully using or visiting the premises. So a burglar, who could not be aware that barbed wire was on top of a fence and injured himself on it, could have a claim against you despite the fact that he was a trespasser. Could your home or place of business have been more securer? The world that we live in is not all roses and ponies. If there is a large wall that you will need to adhere to, then you also need to consider the height of the spikes. Manufacturers ought to do their due diligence to make sure that their spikes are legal.

Please Note; Pink Grip is a solvent based adhesive and is not generally recommended for use with asphalt based surfaces - if in doubt, try a small test strip before commencing installation. My main question is, what are the legalities of using these type of strips? I have trawled the net but seem to get many different answers as to the use & the law covering these strips. The legality of anti-climb spikes depends on your geographical location. The short answer is that anti-climb spikes are legal. For instance, in Australia, your fence will need to be at least of 2meteres in length for you to be able to put spikes on it. How did they get in? That is the most common question asked after burgled. That is among the other things that you will spend time wondering if you could have done better. 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.
