Commonly used in correctional facilities and other high-security areas, heavy-duty wire meshes can provide a high level of security and safety. Wire mesh is commonly used in prisons to curb the passing of contraband or to secure areas likely to become escape paths. Certain wire mesh specifications are utilized in psychiatric wards to protect patients and caregivers and in high-profile areas to prevent theft or damage to valuable and irreplaceable objects.

The items featured here are some of the more popularly requested specifications by those in the security and prison industry, and these items tend to be heavy-duty and often available from stock. Indeed, the items listed are by no means an exhaustive list of wire mesh specifications used in security and in correctional facility applications. Darby also routinely provides custom manufactured items and specializes in large runs when a specific, non-stock item is required. Please be sure to contact us with these requirements.

Additional Information N/A

Welded wire mesh specifications are commonly used in a wide array of industrial and non-industrial applications, including animal caging, critter and varmint control, agricultural use, air vents, basket fabrication, food applications, aviary and bird screen, industrial separation fan and machine guards, security retention, basket fabrication, industrial separation and soffit screens.

Residential do-it-yourselfers gravitate towards these specific items because they offer tremendous value and versatility for projects around the home. In most normal environments, stainless steel will have a longer life cycle than a comparable galvanized mesh.

It is important to distinguish between T-304 stainless steel and T-316 stainless steel. T-304 stainless steel is more popular and more widespread in it use, while T-316 stainless steel is generally reserved for marine environments as it offers a higher resistance to corrosion.
