Richmond, Kentucky – Rio Grande Fence Company is proud to announce the successful completion of a commercial fencing project surrounding a cooling pad at Eastern Kentucky University in Richmond, Kentucky. This installation demonstrates our expertise in providing secure and durable fencing solutions for critical infrastructure.

Cooling Pad Fence Installation Overview

The cooling pad at Eastern Kentucky University required a robust and secure fencing solution to ensure safety and security. Rio Grande Fence Company delivered with the following installation:

  • 8’ Tall Black Perimeter System: The tall fence provides a formidable barrier, enhancing the security of the cooling pad area and preventing unauthorized access.
  • Bottom Locking PVC Slats: These slats offer additional privacy and protection, preventing visibility into the cooling pad area and adding an extra layer of security.
  • 9GA Wire Core with 8GA Finish: This wire core provides a strong and durable fence that can withstand harsh weather conditions and physical impact.
  • 2 - 7/8” Terminal Posts SS40 Black & 2-3/8” Line Posts SS40 Black: These posts ensure the fence remains upright and stable, providing robust support for the entire structure.
  • 1 - 5/8” Top Rail SS40 Black & 6 GA Black Tension Wire: The top rail and tension wire maintain the fence’s structural integrity, ensuring it remains taut and secure.
  • Gate with Strong Arm Latch Black: The gate provides controlled access to the cooling pad area, and the strong arm latch ensures the gate remains securely closed, preventing unauthorized entry.

Importance of High-Security Fencing for Cooling Pads

High-security fencing around cooling pads is essential for several reasons:

  • Protection of Critical Infrastructure: Cooling pads are vital for maintaining the operational efficiency of various systems. Secure fencing protects these assets from vandalism, theft, or other forms of tampering.
  • Safety: By restricting access to authorized personnel only, high-security fencing reduces the risk of accidents and injuries associated with unauthorized access to the cooling pad area.
  • Privacy: The addition of bottom locking PVC slats prevents visibility into the cooling pad area, protecting sensitive equipment and processes from prying eyes.
  • Compliance: Ensuring that the fencing meets or exceeds security standards and regulations helps Eastern Kentucky University maintain compliance and uphold its commitment to safety and security.
