Who needs fencing in Richards Bay
Richards Bay has a deep-water port, a coal terminal, aluminium smelting, mineral sands mining and an industrial development zone, all needing high-security perimeters with palisade or clear view and razor wire. Homes in Meerensee, Birdswood and Arboretum buy palisade and electric fencing, and the salty, humid air makes galvanised and coated steel essential. Sugar cane and timber farms nearby use stock fencing, and game reserves in Zululand build tall game fences. Sandy soils need deeper post footings.
Typical concrete fencing requests in the area come from:
- Industrial: factories build solid perimeter walls to block views into the yard
- Logistics: depots build solid perimeter walls around yards and stock areas
- Mining: mines screen offices, stores and housing areas from dust
- Homes: homeowners build private boundary walls quickly and at lower labour cost
- Farms: farmers wall in homesteads, yards and feedlot areas
- Game reserves: lodges screen service yards, staff housing and refuse areas
