Explanation
For maximum security perimeter protection, double fencing (two parallel fence lines with a monitored buffer zone between them) is considered the most effective and cost-effective solution. The buffer zone between fences makes intrusion much harder, allows for detection, and can accommodate patrols or sensors. A 3'–4' fence deters only casual entry, a 6'–7' fence deters most intruders, and an 8'+ fence with barbed wire is effective but double fencing provides layered defense and detection capability that single fences cannot match.
