Securing Khyber Rock's freestanding homes and estate perimeters
Properties in Khyber Rock are typically either large freestanding homes with established gardens or units within secure estates like The Woodlands. The challenge for an electric fence here is often maintaining a clear line over long perimeters, especially where mature trees grow against high boundary walls. For the estates, the fence is part of a larger system, often integrated with access control at gates on roads such as Woodlands Drive, meaning any fault can have wider implications for security.
Our approach in Khyber Rock is to treat estate perimeters and private homes differently. On long estate walls, we recommend splitting the fence into multiple zones to simplify fault finding. We also make sure that electrified gates are correctly linked to the access control system without causing shocks. For individual homes, we focus on neat installations that respect the property's modern look and manage interference from established garden vegetation, often using offset brackets to keep strands clear.
When a property is sold in Khyber Rock, an Electric Fence System Certificate is usually asked for. For a freestanding house, the seller is responsible for arranging the inspection. For a home within an estate, the certificate for the main perimeter is held by the managing agent, who should be contacted for a copy. This applies to any transfer after 1 October 2012. Tyson is registered with the Department of Employment and Labour as an electric fence installer, and we can provide proof of registration on request.

Questions from Khyber Rock
Our estate has one long perimeter fence. If it trips, how do we know where the fault is?
For long perimeters, we recommend dividing the fence into smaller, individually monitored zones. When a fault occurs, the energiser's keypad shows which specific zone is affected, allowing guards or a technician to find and fix it much faster.
I'm selling my freestanding home. What's involved in getting a certificate for the fence?
We inspect the entire fence against the current regulations. We check for correct earthing, warning sign placement, and energiser safety. We then provide a report of any issues that need fixing before a certificate can be issued.
If something on your electric fence setup in Khyber Rock is not working as it should, the quickest fix starts with a call. We will ask a few questions, book a visit and quote in writing before any work starts.
