Lochrin Bain launch new
products
PSSA Member Lochrin Bain have added to their high security fencing
portfolio with the company’s latest Patent Pending design. They
report that, “The new Lochrin Defender™ Palisade has gained LPS
1175 security rating to SR3 following independent attack tests by
BRE. With CPNI rated fencing products to both ‘Base’ and ‘Enhanced’
securing CNI sites nationwide, the team’s next challenge was to
create a product that was not only suitable for the Red Book, but
that offered something new and innovative in an already crowded
marketplace. By reviewing other systems available the designers
quickly focused on what could be done to improve both aesthetics
and installation. By removing the need for dozens of fixings per panel,
installation times were substantially reduced whilst also removing the
need for specialist tooling or training, the contractor’s life has been
made easier. In creating a product that has been approved to the LPS
1175 standard at SR3 rating coupled with the look of a modern railing
design, aesthetics have also been considered and is sure to be a hit
with security consultants and architects alike. The Lochrin Defender™
SR3 Palisade is installed using only 10 security fixings per panel, is
designed to rake, and is stylish without compromising security, a true
game changer for the security fencing industry”.
