Who needs fencing in Northern Cape
The Northern Cape is huge and sparsely populated, so fencing here is mostly about long distances. Sheep and goat farms in the Karoo and Namaqualand need many kilometres of stock fencing and jackal-proof mesh, and game farms use high game fences. Iron ore, manganese and diamond mines, and solar and wind farms, specify palisade or clear view perimeters. In Kimberley and Upington, homes and schools buy palisade and diamond mesh. Extreme heat, wind, dust and stony ground favour galvanised steel and well-anchored posts.
Typical fence installation requests in the area come from:
- Farms: farmers hire contractors for camps, boundaries and homestead fencing
- Mining: mines hire contractors for long perimeter and safety fencing
- Utilities: utilities hire contractors to fence substations and servitudes
- Game reserves: reserves hire contractors to build and maintain game fences
- Homes: homeowners hire contractors to fence boundaries, pools and driveways
- Schools: schools hire contractors to fence grounds and sports fields

Do I need permission to put up a fence in Northern Cape?
