Who needs fencing in Gauteng
Gauteng is the country's busiest fencing market. Security estates and townhouse complexes in Johannesburg, Pretoria and Centurion fit clear view mesh with electric strands, while freestanding homes add palisade fronts, sliding gates and motors. Factories and warehouses on the East Rand and in Midrand rely on palisade and razor wire, and smallholdings on the city edges use diamond mesh to keep dogs and livestock in. Highveld lightning means energisers need good earthing and surge protection, and break-ins keep demand for perimeter upgrades steady all year.
Typical palisade fencing requests in the area come from:
- Estates: estates fence perimeters and entrances with tall galvanised palisade
- Homes: homeowners fence street frontages and raise boundary walls with palisade on top
- Industrial: factories fence perimeters and loading bays with 2.4 m palisade and razor wire
- Commercial: shopping centres and offices fence frontages and parking areas
- Logistics: warehouses fence yards and gatehouses with galvanised palisade
- Schools: schools fence perimeters with rounded-top palisade for learner safety
