Types of topping and accessories
Straight extension
A vertical post extension carrying razor or barbed wire.
Single angled arm
Angled outwards, making it far harder to get body weight over the edge.
Double Y bracket
Angled both ways, for boundaries with movement on either side.
Add-on panel
An additional panel that raises the height of the existing fence.
Razor mesh topping
A razor mesh barrier instead of coils where volume is constrained.
Clamps and mounting brackets
Fixings matched to the section of the existing posts.
Clips and coil accessories
Elements that clip coils together and fix them to carrier wires.
Fence toppings: types and selection rules
A topping is fitted at the head of an existing fence to lengthen the path over the obstacle and make it harder to get body weight across the edge. The bracket is clamped to the post, and carrier wires are strung between brackets to hold razor wire, barbed wire or concertina coils.
The category covers straight extensions, single arms angled outwards, double Y brackets, add-on panels that simply raise the fence height, razor-mesh toppings, and the full set of mounting accessories: clamps, holders, clips and fixings for posts of different sections.
Selection starts with the condition of the existing posts, because they carry the added load. An angled arm gives more protection than a straight extension but must not cross the plot line or overhang public land. The number of carrier wires and the fixing spacing follow from the chosen coil type and the height of the topping.
