The Real Reason These Train Track Fences Look “Bent”

 Meet the Anti-Climb Fence: Safety, Sculpted in Steel

You’ve seen them—along railways, near substations, around secure facilities. The fence stands tall, then, about chest-high, it flares outward in a sharp, angled curve. It’s not rust. It’s not warping in the sun. It’s precision-bent—and it has one mission: to stop you before you even try.

How It Works—Physics as a Guardian

Imagine climbing a straight fence. Challenging, yes—but with grip, leverage, and determination, possible.
Now imagine reaching that curve. The fence leans toward you. To keep climbing, you’d have to:
→ Arch your back against gravity
→ Lose contact with the vertical support
→ Balance precariously over a drop

It’s biomechanically awkward. Instinctively, your body says: This is unsafe. Abort.

That’s the genius. It doesn’t rely on spikes or electrification. It uses human physiology as its first line of defense.
