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 mesh fence gates requests in the area come from:
- Farms: farmers fit wide double gates for tractors and pedestrian gates at homesteads
- Homes: homeowners add pedestrian and driveway gates to back yard and side fences
- Game reserves: reserves fit gates to staff villages, bomas and service yards
- Mining: mines fit lockable gates to restricted areas and substations
- Schools: schools fit pedestrian gates for learners and service gates for deliveries
- Industrial: factories fit vehicle and pedestrian gates to yard fences
