Who needs fencing in Boksburg
Boksburg on the East Rand is a mix of industry, warehousing and suburbs. Metal works, engineering firms and transport yards fence with palisade and razor wire to stop theft of stock and scrap, and many sites add electric fencing on top. Homes and townhouse complexes in Parkrand, Sunward Park and Beyers Park buy palisade, clear view and sliding gates, while schools and sports clubs fence fields with diamond mesh. Old mine land and clay soils can affect post depth and footings.
Typical electric fencing requests in the area come from:
- Industrial: factories add monitored electric fences to perimeter fences and walls
- Logistics: warehouses protect truck yards and stock against theft
- Homes: homeowners add electric strands to boundary walls for early warning
- Estates: estates run monitored electric fences around the whole perimeter
- Schools: schools add electric strands to perimeter walls and fences
