Who needs fencing in Pinetown
Pinetown, New Germany and Westmead form one of KwaZulu-Natal's biggest industrial nodes, and factories and transport depots secure their yards with palisade and razor wire. Up the hill, homes in Hillcrest, Kloof and Westville buy palisade, clear view and electric fencing, often on steep, sloping plots that need stepped or raked panels. Schools and sports clubs fence fields with diamond mesh. Heavy summer rain and humidity favour galvanised steel, while termites make steel posts or treated poles the better option.

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
- Logistics: depots fence water tanks and stormwater ponds
- Estates: estates fence communal pools and clubhouse pool areas
- Schools: schools fence swimming pools so learners can only enter with staff
- Sports clubs: clubs fence swimming pools and splash pads
