This Standard specifies requirements for chain link fabric security fencing and gates available in a range of alternatives and combinations, with options for fence height, fabric, wire coatings, wire service duty, pipe grades and tables, and types of security fencing design options, depending on agreement between purchaser and manufacture to suit the circumstances of site security. Purchasers need to carefully consider, select and nominate their preference for each component.

NOTES:

1 AS 1725 Parts 1 to 5 fencing solutions are not deemed to be structures as defined in AS 4100, therefore, are not intended to comply with AS 1170, AS 4100 and AS/NZS 4600. However, in applications of high wind loading, crowd control and safety barriers, which can be considered a risk to public safety or deemed to be a building structure, the specifier is required to comply with AS 1170, AS 4100 and AS/NZS 4600.

2 Appendix A provides purchasing guidelines which will assist the purchasers to establish the security fencing requirements suitable for their site application. Purchasers need to carefully consider, select and nominate their preference for each component.
