Security fencing in the city is different from security fencing in the country. Just like the country mouse was different from the city mouse in the old childrens story. The things that you can have when you install an enclosure in a city environment will differ from the things you can have when you install an enclosure in a rural setting.
Security fencing in the city that requires a gate large enough for cars to drive through will be limited to gates that work by sliding back and forth. In the country security fencing can have either the sliding gate or the swinging gate. In the city the action of opening the gate to allow a car in cannot block the street or alley that the fence faces. If the city establishment places a swinging gate on their enclosure they have to make it swing inwards towards their property. If the gate swings inwards then it takes up critical space the business could use for other purposes. On the other hand, swinging gates are rarely used in rural settings either because they are not as secure from criminals as sliding gates are. Anyone that has a five eighths wrench can take the pins out that hold a swinging gate in position.
In rural areas the area between the bottom of the fence material and the ground will need to be made where animals cannot tunnel under them. This is done by burying part of the materials below the surface of the ground or placing something between the fence panel and the ground that prevents the digging. Most city fences do not require that their enclosure be prepared to prevent animals from entering.
In the city you have to have permits to have electricity connected to a fence. The electric current that runs through the panels is not enough to kill most people or animals. There are some people who have pre-existing health conditions that could be severely injured or killed, if they come into contact with these low currents. For example: this could cause a person that is already susceptible to having a coronary event to have a heart attack. Young children could be injured by the current and may not have the ability to read and understand the warning signs on the perimeter.
Rural areas can have more electric fences because their locations are frequently situated so that very few people, if any, should come into direct contact with the materials, and most of the time the electric fences are placed in rural areas in order to keep something in rather than to keep something out.
Inside the city limits you must get a building permit for anything you plan to construct. You will need to use approved materials and will have to have an inspection by a city official in order to determine if the structure you had built passes all city ordinances. Before you go and purchase materials to construct an enclosure call your city hall and ask what permits you may need.
Security fencing is used in both rural environments and around properties in the city. Security fencing in rural environments can usually be installed without a permit. You can click this link for more information.
