A robotic work tool system (200) for redefining a work area perimeter (150) surrounding a work area (105) in which a robotic work tool (100) is subsequently intended to operate. The work area perimeter (150) comprises a plurality of boundary segments (155,160). The robotic work tool system (200) comprises at least one boundary detection unit (170) configured to detect a position of a boundary segment (155,160) of the work area perimeter (150). The robotic work tool system (200) further comprises at least one controller (110,210) configured to determine if a detected position of a boundary segment (155,160) is closer than a threshold distance to a safety perimeter (330). The at least one boundary detection unit (170) is not allowed to cross the safety perimeter (330). The at least one controller (110,210) is further configured to redefine the detected boundary segment (155,160) based on the determination whether the detected boundary segment (155,160) is closer than the threshold distance to the safety perimeter (330).
