Who needs fencing in KwaZulu-Natal
KwaZulu-Natal combines humid coastal suburbs, a large port economy and sugar cane, timber and dairy farms inland. Homes and estates from Ballito to the South Coast buy palisade, clear view and electric fencing, and the salty, humid air means hot-dip galvanising and powder coating are worth paying for. Logistics yards along the N3 and in Richards Bay need high-security perimeters with razor wire, while game reserves in northern Zululand use tall game fencing. Termites and heavy summer rain make treated poles and concrete footings important.
Typical chain link fencing requests in the area come from:
- Homes: homeowners fence gardens, dog runs and side boundaries cheaply
- Logistics: depots fence yards and temporary storage areas
- Estates: estates fence back boundaries and open spaces
- Farms: farmers fence chicken runs, vegetable gardens and small camps
- Industrial: factories fence storage yards and boundaries with toppings
- Game reserves: reserves fence staff areas, nurseries and service yards
