Who needs fencing in Eastern Cape
The Eastern Cape needs fencing for coastal suburbs, automotive factories and a large farming and game sector. Homes in Gqeberha and East London fit palisade and electric fencing, and the windy, salty coast makes galvanised and coated steel the sensible choice. Component plants and the Coega and East London industrial zones specify palisade or clear view with razor wire. Inland, sheep and cattle farms in the Karoo and Amathole use diamond mesh and stock fencing, while private game reserves near the coast build high game fences.

Typical pool fencing requests in the area come from:
- Industrial: factories fence reservoirs, settling ponds and fire water tanks
- Homes: homeowners fence pools so young children and pets cannot reach the water
- Farms: farmers fence homestead pools and farm dams near the house
- Game reserves: lodges fence guest pools to keep children safe and animals out
- Estates: estates fence communal pools and clubhouse pool areas
- Schools: schools fence swimming pools so learners can only enter with staff
