Hedges

Home > Security Measures > External Security Measures > Hedges

It is essential to have a definable perimeter. The perimeter is usually a wall, fence or hedge. The boundary should be well maintained at all times and any damage repaired as quickly as possible. Access must be via a clearly definable gate or door.

If hedges are present, they should be regularly trimmed and maintained at a height that will allow vision from adjoining properties and roads. Hedges should be thick and difficult to penetrate. Choose something like hawthorn, privet, holly, yew, laurel. Please consider where you plant thorny or irritant plants ie not in areas where children play.
