Who needs fencing in North West
In North West, platinum mines, smelters and contractor yards around Rustenburg and Brits are major buyers of palisade and razor wire perimeters. Maize and cattle farms across the province need stock fencing, diamond mesh and farm gates, and game farms near the Pilanesberg and Madikwe areas use game fencing. Homes, townhouse complexes and estates in Rustenburg, Potchefstroom and Klerksdorp add palisade, clear view and electric fences. Hard, rocky ground in places means posts are often set in concrete or drilled footings.

Typical razor wire requests in the area come from:
- Mining: mines protect plant areas, stores and copper cable routes
- Farms: farmers protect homesteads, stores and pump houses
- Homes: homeowners top boundary walls and back fences to stop climbers
- Game reserves: lodges protect fuel stores, workshops and staff compounds
- Estates: estates add razor wire behind perimeter walls and along green belts
- Industrial: factories top perimeter fences and secure stock yards
