EduGuard™

Security Fencing Designed for Schools

Build with a solid foundation.

EduGuard™ is Doogood Australia’s purpose-built fencing system designed to help protect school and early childhood environments.

Developed specifically for Australian schools, the EduGuard™ range includes both EduGuard VRF crash-rated fencing system and the EduGuard Zeroweld fencing system, both providing flexible solutions depending on the level of protection required.

Protecting What Matters Most

Kids are our most important assets, and schools are the place in our communities where they will spend a lot of their time as they grow up. With increasing traffic around school perimeters and growing safety concerns as seen in the media of cars driving through school boundaries, selecting the right fencing system has never been more important.

EduGuard™ was developed to provide school principals, architects, and contractors with fencing systems that combine:
  • Security & Crash Resistance
  • Durability
  • Easier Installation
  • Higher Warranty
EduGuard VRF
Crash-Rated School Protection

EduGuard VRF is the school-focused version of our typical crash-rated fencing system, designed to help mitigate the risk of vehicle intrusion in high-traffic areas. Ideal for school boundaries located along busy roads, intersections, or carparks, EduGuard VRF provides an additional layer of protection where it is needed most.

KEY FEATURES:
Crash Tested
Modelled to pass crash testing international vehicle impact standards (ISO22343-1)
Compliant with VSBA
Compliant with VSBA fencing requirements and government school requirements
Infrastructure Protection

Australian Owned

EduGuard VRF can be installed along high-risk boundaries while standard fencing can be used elsewhere around the school perimeter to help reduce costs, but without reducing protection.
