NSW DET School Security Fencing
The NSW Department of Education and Training (DET) has developed a school security fencing specification.
Bluedog has been an approved supplier to the DET since 2006.
"What we find, apart from actually just saving students and teachers from the heartbreak of having their classroom wrecked, it actually considerably saves money in terms of the upgrade and upkeep of buildings."
Education Minister Verity Firth (October 2009)
