Who needs fencing in Western Cape
In the Western Cape, fencing buyers range from Cape Town estates and townhouse complexes to wine farms, orchards and coastal holiday homes. Salt air along the Atlantic and False Bay coasts corrodes plain steel quickly, so galvanised and powder-coated fences are the norm near the sea. Strong south-easterly winds put load on solid panels, which is one reason open mesh and palisade are popular. Farms in the Boland and Karoo use diamond mesh and stock fencing, while schools, sports clubs and industrial parks favour clear view and palisade perimeters.
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
- Farms: farmers fit wide double gates for tractors and pedestrian gates at homesteads
- Commercial: businesses fit gates to service yards and refuse areas
- Schools: schools fit pedestrian gates for learners and service gates for deliveries
