Residential Side Fence | Hancock Park, Los Angeles
Wooden side gate with reinforced frame. Anti-climb spikes installed on the top edge, below the window lattice.
Understated anti-climb detail: Ninja Deterrent™ Gothic Black crowns the top edge of a wooden gate and fence.
Context & Objective
Located in a quiet residential area of Mid-City, Los Angeles. The homeowner wanted to implement design-first security for their side yard. The requirement was to deter light climbing attempts and tampering of the side gate, while blending seamlessly with the home's sophisticated stucco color and black wrought iron accents.
Rhythm of heart-cuts in matte black portrays an architectural line that discourages grabbing.
Design & Implementation
Ninja Deterrent™ Gothic Black profiles with a matte black finish were installed on the top edge of the wooden gate and the adjacent fence sections on both sides. The heart-cut peaks create a clean silhouette that appears as an elegant cap, while effectively deterring handholds. The black finish coordinates with the window lattice and design, unifying the overall impression and creating a sense of calm.
Continuous coverage up to the gate door and fence eliminates weaknesses at transitions.
