Who needs fencing in East London
East London has a vehicle assembly plant, an industrial development zone, a river port and suburbs such as Beacon Bay, Gonubie and Vincent. Factories and port sites use palisade or clear view with razor wire, while homes buy palisade fronts, electric fencing and sliding gates. Coastal salt and wind make galvanised and coated steel the sensible choice. Schools and sports clubs fence fields with diamond mesh, and farms and game reserves inland need stock and game fencing.
Typical razor wire requests in the area come from:
- Industrial: factories top perimeter fences and secure stock yards
- Homes: homeowners top boundary walls and back fences to stop climbers
- Schools: schools top perimeter fences at points where intruders climb in
- Farms: farmers protect homesteads, stores and pump houses
- Municipal: municipalities protect reservoirs, depots and pump stations
- Game reserves: lodges protect fuel stores, workshops and staff compounds
