WOVEN ROD / 
WOVEN ROD BARRIERS

Woven rod is created by weaving and double-crimping low carbon mild steel rod.   This material is typically found within detention applications.  Any diameter wire rod can be used for adequate security.  Its airy feeling and narrow sight line makes it ideal for criminal justice applications.



Woven rod barriers are commonly used within these areas of correctional facilities (i.e. jails & prisons):

• Swinging or sliding cell fronts
• Doors
• Windows
• Partitions for passageways and corridors
• Cafeterias
• Dayrooms or detention centers
• Partitions in elevators used to transport prisoners
• Recreational areas
• Ceiling & skylight protection
• Sally ports
• Drug cages
• Precious metal rooms
