Who needs fencing in KwaZulu-Natal
KwaZulu-Natal combines humid coastal suburbs, a large port economy and sugar cane, timber and dairy farms inland. Homes and estates from Ballito to the South Coast buy palisade, clear view and electric fencing, and the salty, humid air means hot-dip galvanising and powder coating are worth paying for. Logistics yards along the N3 and in Richards Bay need high-security perimeters with razor wire, while game reserves in northern Zululand use tall game fencing. Termites and heavy summer rain make treated poles and concrete footings important.

Typical palisade fencing requests in the area come from:
- Homes: homeowners fence street frontages and raise boundary walls with palisade on top
- Logistics: warehouses fence yards and gatehouses with galvanised palisade
- Estates: estates fence perimeters and entrances with tall galvanised palisade
- Farms: farmers secure homesteads, workshops and diesel stores
- Industrial: factories fence perimeters and loading bays with 2.4 m palisade and razor wire
- Game reserves: lodges secure reception areas, staff quarters and stores
