Sizing

 

The WireSentry® can fit in any pole that has an open base. The WireSentry® will not work in a pole where the base opening is significantly smaller than the inner diameter of the pole.

Proper sizing is very important to preventing wire theft. The WireSentry® is designed so that a thief can not get around or over to get a hold of your valuable copper wire. For proper sizing for the WireSentry® we will need to know the size and typ of pole that needs protecting. You can fill out our sizing form and we make sure you get exactly the WireSentry® you require.

For proper WireSentry® sizing we will need to know the dimensions of the pole it is going into. The best way is to send us a shop drawing for the pole. If that is not possible, you can fill out our sizing form and we make sure you get exactly the WireSentry® you require.

Whether you are lighting a neighbourhood park, walkway or parking lot, the lighting pole you choose is a target for wire theft. Isolated locations and minimal night-time traffic make these poles especially vulnerable. The valuable wire inside your poles is easily stolen if no deterrent is offered.

WireSentry® fits easily into these poles to offer ultimate security, blocking access to your valuable wire. WireSentry® creates a steel barrier to block access to your wire. Thieves will not be able to see the wire, steal the wire or maliciously tamper with the wire.

The lighting poles used for these applications are typically square or round poles between 4 - 6 inches and can have a hand hole height of 12 -18 inches.

Other anti-theft devices such as “puck locks” are too large for these poles. These devices are easily compromised with a sledge hammer and a pry bar which bend the backing bar and loosen the cover

Only the WireSentry® offers complete security from wire theft. No other security system is required. Just install it and leave it.

Decorative Poles

 

Decorative poles are not immune from wire theft. The hand holes for many decorative poles are much larger than standard poles and are often unconventional shapes to blend in to the overall design. “Puck locks” can not fit these poles and would be unsightly if they could. This poses no problem whatsoever for the WireSentry®. Because the WireSentry® fits inside the pole, all we need to know is the dimensions of the pole and the hand hole height.

Trans Canada Traffic has worked with many pole manufacturers such as LUMEC and Nova Pole to ensure that the WireSentry® fits inside their standard decorative poles. We can provide you a solution with just a phone call.
