K9 Fuels are a family run, fuel distribution business providing an efficient and customer focused service in and around Lincolnshire. Since moving to their new premises on an industrial site, they weren’t able to leave their fuel trucks in the yard because of constant break-ins and theft.

CCTV was installed but wasn't enough of a deterrent. Seeing a Gallagher monitored pulse fence at nearby TC Harrison, K9 Fuels wanted more information on how a similar system could benefit them.

Monitored building alarm

A simple stand-alone, four zone system linked to their existing monitored building alarm was installed. There is potential to upgrade this to a network based system, using the same F32 fence energisers, if the company expands.

System height is 3.0m (32 wire), with a fence length of approximately 200 metres including one sliding gate and one double leaf gate. The break-ins stopped after the monitored pulse fence was installed and K9 Fuels are at ease knowing that their premises are monitored and protected 24 hours a day.
