Who needs fencing in Free State
The Free State is mostly farmland, so stock fencing, diamond mesh and gates for camps and homesteads make up a large share of demand. Maize and cattle farmers replace and extend boundary fences, and game farms near the Vaal and in the eastern highlands use taller game fencing. In Bloemfontein and Welkom, homes, townhouse complexes and schools buy palisade, clear view and electric fencing. Mines and the Sasolburg industrial area need secure perimeters. Hard winter frost and summer storms favour galvanised wire and sturdy, well-braced posts.
Typical diamond mesh fencing requests in the area come from:
- Farms: farmers fence homesteads, kraals, chicken runs and vegetable gardens
- Homes: homeowners fence back yards and side boundaries to keep dogs and children safe
- Game reserves: lodges fence staff villages, bomas and service yards
- Mining: mines fence substations, stockpiles and hazardous areas
- Schools: schools fence playgrounds and sports fields so learners stay safe
- Industrial: factories fence yards and storage areas with razor wire on top
