High Security Fencing for Cloud Computing and AI Infrastructure Facility

Critical infrastructure demands a different level of physical security. A facility dedicated to cloud computing and AI infrastructure carries data, operational continuity and national-level risk considerations that standard commercial fencing cannot address. Lee Group was engaged to design and install a comprehensive high-security perimeter solution, combining crash-rated fencing, advanced gate systems and anti-climb mesh to deliver layered physical protection across the entire site.

Scope of Works

Lee Group’s scope covered the full perimeter and access control fencing requirements of the facility. Works included the installation of PAS68-rated Palisade fencing as the primary perimeter barrier, a crash-rated solution engineered to provide robust protection against high-impact vehicle threats. Access points were secured with a suite of advanced gate systems including PAS-rated sliding gates, swing gates, rising arm barriers, DEFCON 358 finger-proof mesh fencing and gates, and chain link swing gates, each specified and configured to meet the site’s particular security zoning requirements.

PAS68 Rated Perimeter Fencing

PAS68 is the benchmark standard for hostile vehicle mitigation in high-security environments. A PAS68-rated installation is independently tested and certified to withstand vehicle impacts at defined speeds and weights, making it the appropriate specification for facilities where vehicle-borne threats are a credible risk. For a cloud computing and AI infrastructure site, where physical breach carries consequences well beyond the site boundary, a crash-rated perimeter was the only appropriate starting point.

Lee Group’s installation of PAS68-rated Palisade fencing delivers that level of certified protection while maintaining the clean, upright profile appropriate for a modern technology facility.

Advanced Gate and Access Systems

Perimeter fencing is only as effective as the access points within it. Lee Group installed a layered access control fencing solution across the facility, with each gate type selected to match the traffic profile and security classification of its location. PAS-rated sliding and swing gates handle primary vehicle access with the same crash-rated performance as the perimeter fencing. Rising arm barriers control vehicle flow at secondary access points. DEFCON 358 finger-proof mesh fencing and gates secure pedestrian zones and internal boundaries where anti-climb and anti-cut performance is required. Chain link swing gates cover lower-security utility access points, completing a fully integrated perimeter system.

Securing Critical Infrastructure

Data centres and AI infrastructure facilities represent some of the most sensitive physical assets in modern commercial and government environments. The consequences of perimeter breach extend far beyond the site itself, making physical security a non-negotiable investment rather than a cost consideration. Lee Group brings the product knowledge, installation capability and project experience to specify and deliver high-security fencing solutions that are appropriate to the threat environment, compliant with relevant standards, and built to perform across a long service life with minimal maintenance.

This project reflects Lee Group’s growing capability in critical infrastructure fencing alongside its established track record in rail, industrial and commercial environments.

Lee Group’s High Security Fencing Capability

Lee Group supplies and installs the full range of high-security and commercial fencing solutions across Melbourne and Victoria, from DEFCON 358 mesh and PAS68-rated palisade through to chain link fencing and bespoke gate systems. All solutions are manufactured and configured to project-specific security requirements at Lee Group’s Preston factory.
