Data Centres
Physical security – the first layer of data protection
Data Centres are subject to some of the highest levels of threat during both the construction and operational phases.
Valuable materials attract theft during construction, and the value of the vast amounts of data stores leaves them vulnerable to attack during operation.
Data protection is more than cyber security, it also requires appropriate robust physical security.
The range of fencing and gates we provide for Data Centres has been developed to offer a flexible first line of defence for your data.
We offer permanent physical security equipment which can be deployed in a temporary format during construction and then redeployed for a permanent installation. Our products have been designed to be adaptable to site requirements and differing threat levels.
CLD has worked on data centre projects around the world. Our range is tried, tested and certified against the leading UK and EU standards: deterring, detecting and delaying intruders.
Our team will work with you to create a specification that is tailored to the individual site's requirements, during both construction and operation. We will ensure the appropriate level of security is secured in each situation.

Data Centres FAQs
To ensure that physical data remains safe from harm, data centre fencing must meet certain requirements. These include:
- Secure parking areas
- Protection of the exterior of the data centre building
- Secure and controlled entrances and exits for authorised staff, visitors, and for deliveries
- Protection against vehicle-borne attacks (HVM)
- Controlled access to the data centre building
- Protection of the external perimeter from being compromised, either by being scaled, burrowed under, or cutting through
- Security fencing and gate systems must be used in conjunction with other security measures e.g. security lighting, and CCTV
- Security fencing and gate systems must be aesthetically pleasing, and blend with the surrounding environment
Data Centres have access to unprecedented levels of data. It is important to protect data from digital hackers, but the data also needs to be protected in the physical sense. Therefore, security-rated fencing is of the utmost importance for these buildings and keeping data secure. As a physical security breach has the potential risk just like a digital attack would.
This is why, at CLD, we understand how vital data centre fencing is in the wider security strategy of sites. The ultimate goal is to detect potential threats early on and then allow enough time to intercept a risk or threat.
Erecting a Government approved security fencing system at a data centre will only instil confidence for your clients. Providing them with peace of mind that their data is secure, and the risk of data being compromised is significantly reduced, because of the high-quality security fencing.
