razor wire pricing varies so much<\/h2>\n<p>Razor wire is priced by the coil, but every coil is not the same product. Diameter, wire gauge, blade density, and the zinc coating all change how much steel goes into a metre of finished wire, and steel cost plus the shilling&#39;s position against the dollar move the shelf price from month to month in 2026.<\/p>\n<p>That&#39;s why two quotes for &quot;razor wire&quot; on the same day can differ sharply \u2014 one is pricing BTO-22 for a residential wall, the other is pricing CBT-65 double-coil wire for a commercial perimeter. Before you compare numbers, compare specifications. <a href=\"https:\/\/patsecuritysolutions.co.ke\/shop\/2026\/09\/11\/best-razor-wire-for-perimeter-fencing-in-kenya\/\">Razor wire for perimeter fencing<\/a> from Patsec Security Store breaks down which coil type suits which wall type, and that choice is the single biggest driver of your final cost.<\/p>\n<h2>Razor wire price in Kenya by coil type<\/h2>\n<p>Coil type is the first variable to lock down. It sets how much wire and steel you&#39;re buying before installation labor even enters the conversation.<\/p>\n<div class=\"pseo-table-wrap\">\n<table>\n<thead>\n<tr>\n<th>Coil Type<\/th>\n<th>Typical Coil Diameter<\/th>\n<th>Steel Use per Coil<\/th>\n<th>Relative Price Tier<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<\/thead>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td>BTO-22<\/td>\n<td>450mm<\/td>\n<td>Lowest<\/td>\n<td>Low<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>BTO-30<\/td>\n<td>600mm<\/td>\n<td>Medium<\/td>\n<td>Medium<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>CBT-65 (double coil)<\/td>\n<td>980mm<\/td>\n<td>Highest<\/td>\n<td>High<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>All types (blended average)<\/td>\n<td>\u2014<\/td>\n<td>Medium<\/td>\n<td>Medium (yardstick)<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/div>\n<p><strong>BTO-22 sits at the bottom of the price range because it uses the least steel per linear metre of finished barrier.<\/strong> CBT-65 sits at the top because two coils are woven together into one denser, taller barrier, roughly doubling the wire content for the same run length.
