In our difficult times, the protection of the territory, let it be: a summer house, a garage or a warehouse, has become an important element of our peace of mind.
Now almost everyone can afford to install perimeter security equipment such as: video surveillance systems, various touch sensors, panic buttons, etc. But all these security measures are ineffective in the absence of security barriers such as Egoza barbed wire.
When manufacturing a safety barrier, the largest Russian companies (Miass), Atlant Media LLC, use only galvanized material in their products, let it be a cutting profile (strip) or an “Egoza” base - a core made of rope spring wire d 2.5 mm in accordance with GOST 7372-79 a Also, the brackets holding this structure together are also made of galvanized steel with a thickness of 1.2 mm.
The brackets are installed in a checkerboard pattern at 3 or 5 equally distant points along the circumference of the SBB. Unlike our beloved Chinese manufacturers, who use ferrous metals in their production.
Due to such a serious design of the Egoza SBB, it is highly resistant to destruction and even when bitten in several places, the Egoza fence retains its original shape. The design of the spiral-spring can cause serious damage to the offender, as if acting like a compressed accordion on his body.
Installation of the Egoza barrier has a number of specific difficulties. Egoza barbed wire is very dangerous, not only for violators, but also for the installers themselves, so it is simply impossible to do without special skills, special clothing and tools, such as installation pliers.
When installing Egoza barbed wire, it is important to pay attention to the rigidity of fastening the barrier to the fence, which is carried out by securely fastening the brackets and correctly stretching the Egoza along the guide string.
Therefore, it is better to entrust the installation of a spiral barrier to a professional installation team to avoid accidents.
Almost everyone has seen the frightening-looking fences of a large factory or prison, the tops of which are entwined with rings of barbed wire.
SBB “Egoza”, in particular its appearance, should psychologically instill fear in the intruder; if this happens, then the fence has been correctly selected and the installation has been carried out correctly.
You can purchase from us everything you need for self-installation:
1. Clothing for installation (pay special attention to mittens), it is better to use the so-called split welding gaiters (suede) with wrist protection.
2. Consumables : Egoza barbed wire, broach (string) - goes inside the SBB spiral at the top and bottom points, brackets, mounting brackets, mounting pliers.
Be patient and hit the road.
Installation instructions for Egoza fencing
When installing a fence on a fence, install a bracket on each support (post) using welding or anchors (the distance between the brackets should be 2.5 - 3 meters, the height above the fence is 50 mm greater than the diameter of the Egoza - 450 mm or 750 mm, the shape and method of mounting the bracket on the fence is arbitrary depending on the design of the fence).
How to secure barbed wire so it doesn't sag
To fence off the area against unauthorized entry, it is necessary to install a fence.
But sometimes the area is very large, and making a major barrier becomes a costly affair. Moreover, a beautiful fence will not always be a serious obstacle in the way of intruders. If desired, the attackers will climb over it. How to install barbed wire on a fence? Or, there is no need for beauty at all, but only to create a difficult obstacle. For example, in industrial or agricultural areas it is only necessary to ensure protection from entry into a protected facility.
A fence with barbed wire is a suitable option in this case.
Safety precautions when installing Egoza
Particularly noteworthy is the fact that reinforced razor tape and Egoza barriers of any type, and in particular large-diameter spiral barriers and Egoza-Super barbed wire, are very dangerous products, and trying to install them on your own is far from safe. As practice shows, workers who have no experience working with Egoza barbed wire, even with careful attention to the matter, in most cases receive work-related injuries during installation of Egoza, often very serious. To avoid this, it is better to entrust the installation of Egoza to professionals - the specialists of the Caiman production group have extensive experience and have all the necessary skills in working with Egoza barbed wire, and are equipped with everything necessary for the installation of barriers made of reinforced razor tape with tools and equipment. Kaiman PG LLC provides a long-term guarantee for all work performed on the installation of barbed wire.
Design Features
Barbed wire is a metal thread or a narrow strip with barbs attached to it. The wire is available in several configurations. The material is used both for the construction of a full-fledged fence, and for an additional obstacle on an already installed fence of any type.
The thorn is used both for fencing private houses and for protecting industrial facilities.
Initially, the design was invented to protect the territory against animals, and was often used in cattle breeding.
Later, the technology began to be used for fencing against people. The advantages of the design are its low cost, practicality and the ability to install the fence yourself.
Barbed wire: features, types and production, installation rules
Barbed wire (in everyday life “thorn”) is a wire with sharp spikes located along the perimeter. It is used in the construction of the simplest and cheapest fences and helps improve existing ones. To erect a fence, you will only need supports and the wire itself, and installation will be possible even for inexperienced workers.
For the first time, a new method of fencing areas, in which thin and flat hot-rolled steel wire should be used, was invented in France back in 1860. Just five years later, the diamond-toothed “spine” became a patented product. But then it was used extremely rarely.
Changes came in 1872 with the introduction of wire fencing by American Henry Rose, made from small boards to which pieces of sharp wire were screwed. The fence was shown to Illinois farmers. Many tried to improve the design shown, but Joseph Glidden and Isaac Elwood did it best. Their product gained popularity, and the company, founded by partners, produced approximately 270 tons of finished products in 1875.
By 1900, there were no longer any farms in the United States where animal pens were not protected by fencing of this type - the “thorn” reliably protected the cattle. In addition, fencing was cheap, which was also a huge boost to the development of American livestock farming.
Main types of barbed wire
Nowadays it is usually divided into three groups:
- “thread” with thorns;
- reinforced barbed tape (AKL);
- reinforced twisted tape (ASKL).
The materials listed above are produced by many domestic enterprises. The most famous were the products of the brands “Egoza” and “Gyurza”. Sometimes it is called that - in accordance with the name of the manufacturing company.
The standard “thread” with one base is galvanized barbed wire, which is manufactured in our country in accordance with State Standard 285−69. The diameter is 2.8 millimeters. The material is low priced and lightweight.
For installation work, you will need vertical pillars (supports), which are dug into the ground, and a “thorn-thread” is pulled between them. The permissible distance between supports should not exceed three meters, otherwise the wires may sag . Experts recommend carrying out additional reinforcement by pulling another “thread” across the main one.
Installation can be done at an angle or vertically, but the essence remains the same:
- the pillars are dug into the ground (if the length of the fences is insignificant, the supports do not need to be concreted);
- By welding, sections of corners made of metal or reinforcement are attached to the pillars, and “Gyurza” or “Egoza” is attached to them.
It can be used as a decorative decoration for low hedges and flower beds. Small sections can be painted in different colors, creating an unusual landscape design.
“Thread” is the most common type of “thorn”. It is used in areas with a small area. On large objects, wires made from reinforced tapes are used . Fences made from such materials can be as follows:
- flat barriers (security barrier) in the form of flat spirals;
- grids with diamond-shaped cells;
- mobile barriers made of volumetric spirals;
- fences with volumetric spirals of different cross-sections;
- thorny spikes mounted on fences.
Reinforced razor tape "Egoza" - also made of galvanized material, but covered with an additional layer of material. The two-component material costs more than conventional “threads” and is characterized by increased strength.
Installation is impossible without special devices and tools. In particular, you will need an angle grinder or grinder, as well as special reinforcement shears. Therefore, it is advisable to use the tape as an additional reinforcing element .
Rolled tape helps protect the top of the fences. You can use it to make barriers from animals by laying the ribbons in waves on the ground.
When laying and installing, you should adhere to safety rules: work in protective clothing and gloves, use suitable tools, since Egoza often springs back at the most inopportune moments, which can lead to injuries.
Manufacturing process
The manufacturing method depends on the type of “thorn”. For example, razor tape is produced by stamping from rolled metal sheets, steel scraps, and leftover profiles. And the “threads” are made from galvanized wire . The spines for them are made from the same material, giving the pieces a pointed shape and winding them around the base.
Most of the effort and finances are spent on the production of stranded wires. The fact is that at the initial stage they make ordinary “threads”, then twist them using a special machine. This wire is distinguished by increased protective characteristics of future fences due to enhanced technical parameters.

Types of barbed wire
Barbed wire is made by cold drawing and then twisting sharp parts - spikes. More often, the cross-sectional shape of the spine is round. Diameter and hardness vary.
There is a soft wire that is easy to install.
Another option is a stiffer material that is more difficult to work with but more durable. Production is carried out on special machinery. Steel is used for manufacturing.
The most common design option is a single or two-strand thread, on which short pieces of wire with pointed ends are wound. The wire is made galvanized or uncoated.
The ribbon thorn is knocked out in the form of a long metal strip with protruding spikes in the shape of a pyramid. This tape is wound onto solid bases. By itself it is quite soft, it can be cut with metal scissors. Even when used on solid substrates, it can be removed, which reduces the reliability of the fence. Therefore, most often the tape is used on a durable basis - a steel core.
A simple option is regular wrapping.
The disadvantage is that the barb can be separated from the steel core. A more reliable option is to crimp the tape around the core. In this case, the structure is very difficult to disconnect, and the steel core does not allow cutting the barbed wire fence.
The last option is known as “Egoza”. The 0.6 mm thick tape is made of steel with a small amount of carbon in its composition. It has a zinc coating. The protrusions on it are very sharp and tenacious. The core is a spring carbon steel wire with a diameter of 2.5 mm.
Has high strength. Also has a zinc coating.
Types of wire
“Spikes” used for fences and enclosures can be of different types. For example, there are galvanized or steel-reinforced wires that have a diamond pattern or tape spikes. Let's look at each type of this material separately.
Barbed thread
Thread is one of the popular types of barbed fencing. It has a galvanized wire at the base with a cross-section of slightly less than 3 mm. The “spines” on it are formed by steel segments twisted along the entire length; they can be double or single.
The thread can be:
The first option is preferable, since it is much easier to make the fence yourself.
Such spikes are a reliable protector of the site from uninvited guests.
Please note: the wire can be sold without a protective corrosion layer. These options are cheaper, but they also have a shorter service life.
The thorn thread is divided into:
The elasticity characteristic affects both the ease of installation of the thread and its barrier properties. It is better to use soft wire for small spans and winding poles, gates, etc. – it is easily deformable and easy to work with.
But for long fences it is better to choose a more elastic version of the material, since soft wire can sag over a long length.
Ribbon barb
The tape is a strip of iron wound around a wire frame. Instead of spikes, sharp segments are used here.
This version of the spine can be wound either around the central thread, creating an impenetrable “tunnel” with points, or in the form of a flat spiral.
The volumetric spiral fence is called the “Bruno spiral”. Its advantage is that the thorn can be placed either along the entire fence or just its upper part, or just on the ground - in all cases, such a tape will be highly effective.
Visual representation of Bruno's spiral
Reinforced twist
Reinforced barbed thread is a steel wire with very sharp edges. The profile is not uniform throughout the entire twist. This type of fencing is labeled as ASCL.
You can secure the reinforced barb in different ways, from tape to separately cut and twisted spikes for the top of the fence.
No intruder can climb over such a fence.
Installation methods
Installation of barbed wire is carried out in various ways:
- On the top of an already installed fence. The main fence can be made of any material: brick, wood, metal sheets, concrete slabs. The wire at the top creates an additional barrier against trespassers. Today, fidget is installed more often. The barb is mounted on brackets of various options.
- On or around the roof. The wire is attached either to brackets or to additional metal strings.
- A continuous protective sheet is created. What is the best way to attach a cap to a brick pillar? Barbed wire is attached between adjacent posts. Poles are made from different materials, most often metal or wood. The fence can be made flat or voluminous. Such a wire fence is not inferior in its functionality to any other fence.
Even though you can install barbed wire yourself, this work requires extreme care and attention, otherwise serious damage can occur. To install the fence, you will need assembly pliers and durable leather or canvas clothing.
Video of installation of Egoza barbed wire
There are also more specific ways of installing Egoza barbed wire - for example, partially or completely buried under the surface of the water, this already applies to the protection of sensitive special and defense facilities. As a recent example on the Dnieper showed, unauthorized installation of Egoza barbed wire in water bodies is illegal. By the way, when installing Egoza barbed wire, when it is partially or completely immersed in water, not every Egoza barbed wire available on the market will last long. Installation of Chinese or cheap domestic Egoza performed in this way will only lead to the fact that literally in a few weeks the shore of the reservoir will be clogged with a pile of rusty pieces of wire. For underwater installation, only high-quality Egoza-Super barbed wire can be used, which has a high-quality galvanized core of large cross-section and large-thick barbed-cutting spikes made of reliably galvanized steel.
Flat blade
The canvas is made of fidget. It consists of coils fastened together with staples. Each subsequent turn is shifted relative to the previous one by a certain value. This barbed wire fabric has an acceptable aesthetic appearance.
Therefore, it is used in the city or in private households. It is slightly inferior to the spiral design in protective qualities, but at the same time, cheaper and more compact.
Fence made of thorny spirals
In addition to flat fabric, three-dimensional structures are also manufactured - fidget spirals. A fence made of this design is made in the form of turns of barbed wire connected to each other with small staples. The staples are fastened in a checkerboard pattern.
The diameter of the fidget is 450 mm – the most common option for fencing. The volumetric form is a difficult barrier to pass. The spirals are springy and do not give in to compression.
Installation
In our difficult times, the protection of the territory, let it be: a summer house, a garage or a warehouse, has become an important element of our peace of mind.
Now almost everyone can afford to install perimeter security equipment such as: video surveillance systems, various touch sensors, panic buttons, etc. But all these security measures are ineffective in the absence of security barriers such as Egoza barbed wire.

Installation instructions for Egoza fencing
When installing a fence on a fence, install a bracket on each support (post) using welding or anchors (the distance between the brackets should be 2.5 - 3 meters, the height above the fence is 50 mm greater than the diameter of the Egoza - 450 mm or 750 mm, the shape and method of mounting the bracket on the fence is arbitrary depending on the design of the fence).
SBB Egoza is stretched into working position and secured to brackets with steel wire with a diameter of 2 mm. twisted at two points. When installing the next spiral, the outermost turn of the first spiral is connected to the outermost turn of the second spiral with steel wire with a diameter of 2 mm, twisted in 2 diametrically opposite places.
Other options for installing fencing are possible at the discretion of the consumer.

Fence
The fence is a mesh of barbed wire stretched over posts. It can be flat or voluminous depending on the type of spine used. With a good frame, the fence turns out to be quite durable, despite its apparent simplicity.
In addition, it ensures unhindered penetration of sunlight.
Fences and barbed wire barriers
One of the most important functions of a fence is to protect the area from uninvited guests. If a high and durable monolithic fence makes it more or less difficult to enter the site, then a barbed fence is a more reliable guard for private property. Sharp, clinging thorns and edges can become a serious obstacle even on a low and dilapidated fence.

The stronger and more inaccessible the fence, the better it performs its main function of preventing the entry of strangers. Installing barbed wire on a fence will make any fence impenetrable. The method is simple and relatively inexpensive. There is no need to redo an existing fence. It is enough to install the brackets and mount the selected type of barbed wire on them. A professional team will complete the installation along the entire perimeter of the site in 2–3 days.
Installed protection option
Advantages of barbed wire fences
The history of using barbed wire to fence the territory of various institutions goes back more than one century. Spiked products were strung around pastures and private lands to prevent anyone from entering from the outside. In security zones, the thorn protected against attempts to escape.
The installation procedure depends on the required level of protection
Currently, barbed wire is widely used, the installation of which has advantages over other methods of increasing the degree of inaccessibility of the fence:
- quickly installed;
- impossible to overcome;
- cheap;
- installed on an existing fence;
- transparent;
- has a terrifying appearance;
- capable of seriously injuring;
- Corrosion resistant.
The thorn looks less aesthetically pleasing than forged peaks, but it is impossible to overcome the fence even with the help of wire cutters and other tools.

The evolution of barbed wire
Today, the effectiveness of a razor fence, combined with ease of installation, allows it to be successfully used to mark the boundaries of the following objects:
- Private houses and cottages;
- Dog walking area. Ensuring the protection of others and the peaceful walk of animals. Often a current is also passed through such a fence, in which case the dog will not even get close to the fence;

Features of installation of barbed wire at different objects
Specialists of the Cayman production group, before starting the installation of barbed wire and Egoza barriers at the site, conduct a thorough study of the fenced object and the adjacent territory. Depending on the conditions at a particular site, the optimal installation option for Egoza barbed wire is selected. If necessary, specialists from PG Cayman LLC will recommend various ways to increase the efficiency of protecting the perimeter of objects by installing additional Egoza barriers or using electronic security systems, also supplied by PG Cayman LLC. In addition, our specialists can offer options for significant cost savings on the creation of engineering protection systems for an object, since it often happens that in some areas of the perimeter it was supposed to use Egoza protective barriers with excessive efficiency, which does not affect the safety of the protected object as a whole.
Egoza razor tape
Since its inception, barbed wire has undergone changes, its strength and barrier functions have been increasingly improved. Everyone knows the traditional barbed fence with spikes made of sharpened wire.
Today, razor belts cut from steel strip are considered more reliable and effective.
Galvanized wire with cutting blades is difficult to cut through even with special tools. In terms of strength and durability, Egoza razor tape is many times superior to its analogues.
Types of studded fence
To make a thorny fence the following is used:
- galvanized wire with sharp spikes along its entire length. According to Gosstandart, its thickness is 2.8 mm. This is the simplest protective structure intended for domestic use - for example, for constructing a barbed wire fence at a dacha or farm;
- reinforced steel strip belt equipped with sharp blades. It can be straight (AKL) or twisted (ASKL), and is used at both private and public industrial facilities.
Please note: the second type of “thorn” is more reliable, since such an obstacle is difficult to remove even with the help of special tools.
Reinforced razor tape can be presented in the form of:
- flat tape;
- grids with diamond-shaped cells;
- volumetric spirals of different diameters (Bruno spiral);
- spikes attached to the finished fence.
Domestic enterprises produce various types of “thorns,” but the most recognizable and widespread on the market are products of the Egoza and Gyurza brands.
A fence with barbed wire can be presented as:
- pillars with a “thorn” stretched between them;
- an ordinary fence on top of which a protective structure is installed. For example, there is a type of gitter mesh equipped with L- or Y-shaped brackets for attaching barbed wire to them.
Bruno spiral
The most reliable option is a fence made of spiral razor tape. The three-dimensional structure, consisting of galvanized wire and cutting tape, is called the Bruno spiral. Spiral barriers are available in different diameters, from 45 to 90 cm. In some cases, the diameter can be individual, depending on the needs of the customer.
The barrier is installed along a fence or on the ground. In turn, spiral barbed wire is installed along the fence:
Installation of a Bruno spiral barrier
- In one or two rows;
- With a slope to make it difficult to enter the territory;
- Additionally from below from the outside.
The barrier is placed on the ground in various ways:
- Free-lying - in one row or in several;
- In the form of a pyramid;
- On support pillars - in two or three rows.

Pros and cons of barbed wire
Barbed wire has its advantages and disadvantages. Among the positive qualities we can note:
- Reliability and durability. Made in accordance with GOST, the reinforced tape has high strength and corrosion resistance. The service life of Egoza fencing is up to 20 years;
Option for installing a thorn on a stone fence
- Various applications. A wire fence can be flat, spiral, installed on the ground or a ready-made fence;
- High light transmittance and transparency. The fence transmits 100% of light and provides excellent visibility in the protected area;
- Low price. The cheapest method of fencing;
- Easy installation. The ability to limit the territory in a short time and without complex devices;
- High degree of protection. Tape and spiked wire are a reliable way to prevent entry into private territory or a protected facility. The very appearance of such a fence is frightening and dangerous;
- Possibility to make an energized fence. To enhance the protective functions of the fence, a current can be passed through the steel wire.
The advantages of barbed wire, when viewed differently, can be classified as disadvantages:
- The transparency of such a fence will not protect against prying eyes (of course, if Egoza is not installed on top of a high concrete fence);
- When choosing a wire fence, you need to understand that it is unlikely to serve as a decoration for the site and speak about the good taste of the owner.

Brackets for barbed wire
Fastening barbed wire can be done in different ways; for this, various configurations of brackets are used, which are bolted or welded to fence posts.
Razor or spiral tape can be installed on the following mounts:
- On a straight bracket, the spiral is fixed to brackets, and the wire is stretched in several rows between the fasteners;
- On an L-shaped bracket, located at an angle, to enhance the protective properties of the fence;
- Y and U brackets allow for a variety of ways to install spiral structures.
What is spiked wire?
If you still don’t understand why barbed wire fencing is called the most effective type of fencing, study the features of this material.
Interesting video about how spiked wire was invented:
Firstly, strong reinforced threads are almost impossible to cut even with wire cutters. No random thief will carry with him a bunch of special devices to overcome such a fence.
Secondly, in different sections of the tape or spiral, the location and frequency of the spikes can change, which makes it possible to further protect the most vulnerable places in the fence.
Well, and finally, pay attention to the fences of various government agencies, prisons, closed facilities - you will see “thorns” almost everywhere, which means that the effectiveness of such a fence has been tested more than once.
Such fences usually look quite intimidating
pros
The advantages of this material include not only good protective properties. Besides:
- Galvanized options have a long service life (plus or minus 20 years);
- Installing barbed wire on a fence can be done with your own hands;
- This material can be installed on a concrete fence, or on a wooden or plastic one;
- A big plus is the relatively low cost;
- You can install a tape with spikes on an existing fence;
- Such a fence will be as light and breathable as possible.
Of course, when installing razor tape you will have to use protective gloves and fairly durable overalls. The risk of damaging your hands or other parts of the body with such a thread is very high; the wounds remain very unpleasant and “painful”.
Note! In addition to everything described, it is possible to conduct an electric current along a thorn on the fence. But this must be done with caution, making sure to notify others about such a system using a warning sign.
The only disadvantage of razor tape is its unsightly appearance. Many people associate it with a prison fence. But if there is a need to ensure maximum safety on the site, decorative characteristics may fade into the background.
Mounting brackets
To firmly secure the “thorn” to the fence, special brackets are used. They have different shapes, which are used depending on the type of fence and type of wire.
The following options exist:
- straight brackets (vertical or inclined) with brackets, between which wire is stretched in several rows of different densities;
- inclined brackets in the shape of the letter L - the principle of installing razor tape is the same, but thanks to the configuration of the fastenings, the fence becomes even more reliable;
- Y-shaped brackets serve the same purpose; it is especially convenient to attach fidgets to them;
- Semicircular brackets are great for attaching voluminous spiral tapes both to fences and to the surface of the ground.
If you are installing a barb on a residential property, straight brackets will be sufficient. They can be angled to make it impossible to get behind the fence.
Fencing scheme option
Installation of barbed wire on a fence
To install razor tape on a ready-made fence, you will need not only brackets, but also a set of certain tools. Namely:
- welding machine;
- metal staples;
- pliers;
- protective gloves and overalls.
Installing a spiral security barrier on a fence
When working with razor tape, increased safety precautions are required. Steel cutting blades can cause serious cuts, and even minor scratches are very painful and take a long time to heal.
For installation you will need the following:
- Thick clothing and gloves with wrist protection;
- Razor tape;
- Galvanized staples or wire to secure the barrier;
- Brackets;
- Welding machine or bolts;
- Broach strings (stretched razor tape can be used instead);
- Assembly pliers.

Installation instructions for Egoza fencing
Fidget installation
Fidget can be used to install safety barriers of various sizes, both directly on the ground and on fences of various types, as well as on the roofs and walls of a building. Installation of fences in combination with fidget
makes it possible to make a permanent or temporary strong engineering barrier in a short time. Fidget can be installed on fences of various heights, widths and densities, on surfaces of various structures: on roofs and walls of buildings, in the form of a canopy - on walls and on gates.
Egoza is installed
in the form of a spiral with staples and in the form of a spiral without staples.
Installing the fidget
without brackets is not particularly difficult; two people can install it.
But the protective functions of such a safety barrier are lower than those of a fidget with staples. Therefore, in this article we will look at installing fidget with brackets.
RECOMMENDATIONS FOR INSTALLING EGOZA ON FENCES:
1. Bracket installation
. They can be straight, semicircular, Y-shaped. To install the brackets you will need a ladder, a grinder, a welding machine or a hammer drill, depending on the type of fence. Consumable materials must include anchor bolts and electrodes (or welding wire, if welding is performed semi-automatically or using gas welding), and abrasive wheels. 2. Barbed or regular galvanized wire is pulled between the brackets. For good tension, it is advisable to have a winch or other tensioning mechanism. The tension wire serves as a frame for the fidget and allows it to keep its shape and not sag. Depending on the diameter of the fidget spiral, it is recommended to install 1-3 strings. 3. The fidget coil is opened and stretched along the ground into a working position with the required number of turns per 1 linear meter. To work with fidget, you must have leather gloves with wrist protection and thick clothing. 4. Using special staples and pliers, the fidget is attached to the tensioned wire and brackets. It is necessary to observe the required number of turns for each linear meter. These fidget installation instructions are not an axiom. Points 2, 3, 4 can be interchanged, for example: 2. A tension wire is attached to the first bracket. 3. The free end of the tension wire is threaded through a coil of fidget, then stretched and attached to the last bracket. 4. The fidget stretches and moves freely along the already tensioned wire and is fixed in the right places, taking into account the number of turns per linear meter.
Work order
- Installation of brackets using welding or other fasteners.
- Spiral razor tape is installed on top of the fence and secured with staples or wire to the brackets. The density of the spirals can be arbitrary, but the more there are per meter of fence, the more reliably the area will be protected from penetration. Usually 5-6 turns per linear meter of fence are enough.
The process of installing a barbed wire fence
Barbed wire fence
Despite its not very attractive appearance, a “thorn” fence has its advantages:
- Excellent protective characteristics;
- High light transmittance;
- Affordable price;
- Easy installation;
- Durability and strength;
- The ability to supplement the protective properties of the “thorn” by attaching it to the voltage line.
To install barbed wire, you do not need to build a foundation. It is enough to install the pillars. They can be metal, wood or concrete. How to fix polycarbonate on a fence? The step between supports is 2.5–3 m.
Fence posts are driven into the ground or concreted, although the latter is a rare occurrence, because this method is too expensive. Barbed wire is stretched between the posts, maintaining a distance of 10–20 cm. The wires are overlapped together using mounting brackets. Additionally, you can fasten the wire crosswise, and install a bracket with rows of additional spines on top. In order for the barbed fence to perform its barrier functions even more effectively, it can be connected to an electrical network.
If high aesthetics is not a priority, a barbed wire fence is an excellent option for quickly and reliably fencing an area without extra effort and expense.
Instructions for installing the fidget are available in this video
Frequently asked questions: How much does it cost to install fidget? How much does it cost to install a prickly fidget on a fence or gardening? Let's try to partially answer.
For estimators. On one of the forums I saw a recommendation: take the E7-24-13 price, find the price for installing reinforced concrete fence posts and subtract it from the E7-24-13 price. The price for installing the fidget will remain.
The cost of installing a fidget depends on what fence it will be installed on, what method, at what height, and how far away the installation site is. In the case of installation of fidget in Kiev, Lvov and other cities that are located far from Zaporozhye, we can send a team of fidget installers on a business trip or offer installation of fidget to our partners who install fidget in these cities. We do not recommend searching the Internet for information using the search words fidget installation instructions , fidget installation instructions . We found that no one gives clear instructions for installing Egoza, but the search results contain many pages containing viruses. The presence of a security system on your computer, in the form of an antivirus and other applications, does not guarantee your security 100%. Therefore, it is better to come to terms with the idea that fidget installers are reluctant to share their production secrets, and you should get used to the idea that fidget installation needs to be ordered from specialized companies and let them earn money or install fidget on their own , having previously traveled around and seen how fidget is installed at others.
Pay special attention to safety precautions. Injuries from fidget installation can be serious. After all, it was precisely so that the attacker would be afraid of getting seriously injured that you decided to buy a fidget . The photo shows the Cossack fidget and the hand of our employee.

When installing fidget, buyers have questions: we buy fidget 450/3 with 86 turns with a stretch of 21.5 meters, but it stretches at most 18 meters. Why? Answer: the reason is the installation technology. Look at the photo where this fidget 450/3 is stretched to 21.5 meters and the video where it is stretched to 21.5 meters and 18 meters.
But in order to stretch the fidget 450/3 to the maximum distance, it must be stretched in stages. For example, 12 turns per 3 meters. In this case, the distance between adjacent turns should be 0.5 m.
