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