Who needs fencing in Welkom
Welkom is the centre of the Free State goldfields, and mines, tailings plants and contractor yards need secure palisade and razor wire perimeters, as cable and metal theft are serious problems. Homes in suburbs such as Flamingo Park and Riebeeckstad buy palisade fronts, electric fencing and gates, while schools and sports clubs fence fields with diamond mesh. Maize and cattle farms around Odendaalsrus and Theunissen need stock fencing and camp gates. Flat, open ground makes long, straight runs common.

Typical concrete fencing requests in the area come from:
- 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
- Industrial: factories build solid perimeter walls to block views into the yard
- Schools: schools build street-facing walls around their grounds
- Sports clubs: clubs build boundary walls behind fields and parking areas
