The Stalwart II system integrates the design features of a traditional ornamental iron fence with the resilience of the Stalwart anti-ram barrier. The Stalwart II ornamental picket design blends into its surroundings, not drawing attention to itself, but still maintaining the requirements of an anti-ram barrier. Stalwart II security fences use the same fence framework as the Impasse high security fence, giving it the ability to integrate multiple security components without a costly patchwork installation. The ornamental picket design helps maintain the quality of life in populated areas and still provides the level of protection required for a facility.
