A fence, by itself, can be climbed over, tunneled under, or smashed through. No matter how strong it is, if there is somebody with access to explosives (as the cartels do), a hole can be blown in it.

There's a prerequisite to building an effective fence. It is "having the will to do bad things to those who attempt to scale it".

Even a modest 8 foot high chain link fence would be effective, though, if the crossers knew that there were US Marine snipers watching it, with orders to shoot anybody trying to scale the fence. But the US does not have the will to go that far.
