Who needs fencing in East London
East London has a vehicle assembly plant, an industrial development zone, a river port and suburbs such as Beacon Bay, Gonubie and Vincent. Factories and port sites use palisade or clear view with razor wire, while homes buy palisade fronts, electric fencing and sliding gates. Coastal salt and wind make galvanised and coated steel the sensible choice. Schools and sports clubs fence fields with diamond mesh, and farms and game reserves inland need stock and game fencing.
Typical fence installation requests in the area come from:
- Industrial: factories hire contractors for security fencing and gates
- Homes: homeowners hire contractors to fence boundaries, pools and driveways
- Schools: schools hire contractors to fence grounds and sports fields
- Farms: farmers hire contractors for camps, boundaries and homestead fencing
- Municipal: municipalities hire contractors for parks, depots and facilities
