Brian, I used standard galvanized hardware mesh. It wraps around Rohn 25
nicely, and I laced it with some galvanized wire. To climb the tower, I
put a 6 foot step ladder up against the side to get above the mesh.
This method is much cheaper than the Rohn flat metal guards, and it
probably as effective.
