Who needs fencing in Bloemfontein
Bloemfontein's fencing demand comes from homes and townhouse complexes in suburbs such as Langenhoven Park, Woodland Hills and Fichardt Park, plus courts, government buildings, universities and schools. Estates and institutions favour clear view and palisade, and homes add electric fencing and motorised gates. Smallholdings and farms around the city need diamond mesh, stock fencing and farm gates. Highveld thunderstorms, hail and hard winter frost mean energisers need surge protection and galvanised wire holds up best.
Typical palisade fencing requests in the area come from:
- Homes: homeowners fence street frontages and raise boundary walls with palisade on top
- Estates: estates fence perimeters and entrances with tall galvanised palisade
- Municipal: municipalities fence water works, clinics, depots and libraries
- Schools: schools fence perimeters with rounded-top palisade for learner safety
- Farms: farmers secure homesteads, workshops and diesel stores
- Commercial: shopping centres and offices fence frontages and parking areas
