Fence spikes law

The law states that if you’ve warned people that the hazard exists, and that they can see it without obstruction. Then anti climb spikes on top of the wall are allowed, so long as you’ve added clear and obvious notice citing: & Caution: danger of injury from fence spikes’. Using this method the proprietor is not attempting to injury anyone merely just to stop them from climbing the wall, so fence spikes and a sign combined are a more effective deterrent than fence spikes alone.

What height can you install spikes on a security fence?

There is not a hard and fast rule, but normally 2m is what is accepted but it must be where the general public cannot accidentally come into to contact with the spikes.
