Who needs fencing in Eastern Cape
The Eastern Cape needs fencing for coastal suburbs, automotive factories and a large farming and game sector. Homes in Gqeberha and East London fit palisade and electric fencing, and the windy, salty coast makes galvanised and coated steel the sensible choice. Component plants and the Coega and East London industrial zones specify palisade or clear view with razor wire. Inland, sheep and cattle farms in the Karoo and Amathole use diamond mesh and stock fencing, while private game reserves near the coast build high game fences.

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
- Farms: farmers hire contractors for camps, boundaries and homestead fencing
- Game reserves: reserves hire contractors to build and maintain game fences
- Estates: estates hire contractors for perimeter and internal fencing
- Schools: schools hire contractors to fence grounds and sports fields
