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 pool fencing requests in the area come from:
- Homes: homeowners fence pools so young children and pets cannot reach the water
- Logistics: depots fence water tanks and stormwater ponds
- Estates: estates fence communal pools and clubhouse pool areas
- Farms: farmers fence homestead pools and farm dams near the house
- Industrial: factories fence reservoirs, settling ponds and fire water tanks
- Game reserves: lodges fence guest pools to keep children safe and animals out
