We need a 1.1m fence on a 8m span. Steep drop other side...

So trying to work out a money saving way to achieve a good fence to stop anyone from going over the top to a steep fall. Thinking wood just not sure how? I presume vertical slats to stop climbing? Has to satisfy building control.

Where is it? Garden or at the house?

Large bifacial PV panels?

 

If wood, vertical slates not horizontal. Think stairs balustrade not fence. It also has to satisfy wind load requirements, impacts and not fall over. These requirements change with fall height. Look up balustrade requirements.

Razor wire?

 

Would snag their clothing (and flesh) to stop them falling and they're unlikely to try it again (unless they're a Darwin Award contender).
