Who needs fencing in Bloemfontein
Bloemfontein's fencing demand comes from homes and townhouse complexes in suburbs such as Langenhoven Park, Woodland Hills and Fichardt Park, plus courts, government buildings, universities and schools. Estates and institutions favour clear view and palisade, and homes add electric fencing and motorised gates. Smallholdings and farms around the city need diamond mesh, stock fencing and farm gates. Highveld thunderstorms, hail and hard winter frost mean energisers need surge protection and galvanised wire holds up best.
Typical chain link fencing requests in the area come from:
- Homes: homeowners fence gardens, dog runs and side boundaries cheaply
- Estates: estates fence back boundaries and open spaces
- Municipal: municipalities fence parks, sewage works and reservoirs
- Schools: schools fence play areas and field boundaries
- Farms: farmers fence chicken runs, vegetable gardens and small camps
- Commercial: businesses fence parking, yards and empty plots
