Who needs fencing in Johannesburg
Johannesburg has some of the country's highest demand for security fencing. Freestanding homes in older suburbs add palisade or clear view on top of walls, with electric strands and motorised sliding gates, while estates in Fourways and the north fit clear view perimeters. Industrial areas such as City Deep and Kya Sand use palisade and razor wire against theft. Schools, sports clubs and parks need mesh or palisade boundaries, and rocky ridges and old mine land can make post holes harder to dig.
Typical mesh fence gates requests in the area come from:
- Homes: homeowners add pedestrian and driveway gates to back yard and side fences
- Estates: estates fit service gates and green belt access gates
- Industrial: factories fit vehicle and pedestrian gates to yard fences
- Commercial: businesses fit gates to service yards and refuse areas
