    SolarGard Aurora – Solar Farm Security Fencing System

    SolarGard Aurora fencing system is a versatile choice for Solar Farm boundaries. Designed with overlapping mesh wire panels, it offers a secure perimeter fencing system that is stronger than standard mesh and much more durable than deer fencing.

    As with SolarGard Titan, this system features LPCB SR1 security rating, allowing it to withstand forced entry attempts using basic tools such as cable cutters, screwdrivers, knives, and hammers, providing a time-delay resistance to attempted break-ins.

    Why Choose SolarGard Aurora for Solar Farm Security?

    • LPCB SR1 Certified: Tested and approved by the Loss Prevention Certification Board (LPCB) to meet strict security standards, giving you peace of mind that your solar farm is protected.
    • Anti-Climb & Double-Wire Design: The overlapping wires create a extra strong barrier, making it difficult to cut through, while the flat mesh face makes it hard to climb.
    • 25-Year Guarantee: Built to last, SolarGard Aurora comes with a 25-year guarantee, ensuring long-term reliability and performance.
    • Colour Options: Available in stock with RAL 6005 Moss Green for a traditional look or a RAL 9005 Black powder-coated finish that blends into natural landscapes, ideal for solar farms.
    • Coastal Protection: For installations near the coast, we offer a double-layered marine powder coat to protect against corrosion from saltwater and spray.

    Complies with Police and Insurance Provider Standards

    SolarGard Aurora Solar Farm fencing fully adheres to the security guidelines set by the police for solar installations. This reliable security solution has undergone rigorous testing and has been certified to meet the latest UK Government standards, earning an official LPCB security rating. Insurers also assess the security rating and ensure compliance with British Standards when evaluating solar farm protection, and SolarGard Aurora satisfies all of these essential criteria.

    By meeting these standards, additional high-cost security measures such as 24/7 CCTV surveillance, manual patrols, or infrared lighting may be deemed unnecessary by insurers when SolarGard Aurora is installed.

    Wildlife Access Gates: Supporting Environmental Sustainability

    At Alexandra, we recognise the importance of preserving wildlife movement around solar farm boundaries. Our specialised wildlife access gates enable small animals, such as badgers and foxes, to safely pass through without compromising the security of your solar farm. These gates are designed to integrate seamlessly with all our solar fencing systems.

    • One-Way or Two-Way Access: Customise gates to open in one or both directions to meet your specific site needs.
    • Environmentally Friendly:: Maintain natural wildlife routes while ensuring larger animals remain outside the protected area.

    Fixings

    The posts and full length clamp bars used provide a fixing system which secures the panels but allows for variations. The system is easy to install and allows the panels to be stepped, helping the fence line to follow the contours of the ground. With the vandal resistant security fixings this post and clamp system provides a higher level of security than the traditional clip system.
