Who needs fencing in Germiston
Germiston has a dense industrial base around Wadeville, Elandsfontein and Germiston South, plus a major railway junction. Steel merchants, engineering works and depots secure their yards with palisade, razor wire and electric fencing, since cable and metal theft is a constant concern. Rail and municipal sites need long perimeter runs. Homes in Primrose, Elspark and nearby Alberton buy palisade fronts and sliding gates, while schools and sports clubs fence playing fields with diamond mesh or palisade.
Typical razor wire requests in the area come from:
- Industrial: factories top perimeter fences and secure stock yards
- Logistics: depots top truck yard and container yard fences
- Utilities: utilities protect substations, cell towers and cable yards
- Homes: homeowners top boundary walls and back fences to stop climbers
- Schools: schools top perimeter fences at points where intruders climb in
- Municipal: municipalities protect reservoirs, depots and pump stations
