Who needs fencing in Northern Cape
The Northern Cape is huge and sparsely populated, so fencing here is mostly about long distances. Sheep and goat farms in the Karoo and Namaqualand need many kilometres of stock fencing and jackal-proof mesh, and game farms use high game fences. Iron ore, manganese and diamond mines, and solar and wind farms, specify palisade or clear view perimeters. In Kimberley and Upington, homes and schools buy palisade and diamond mesh. Extreme heat, wind, dust and stony ground favour galvanised steel and well-anchored posts.
Typical razor wire requests in the area come from:
- Farms: farmers protect homesteads, stores and pump houses
- Mining: mines protect plant areas, stores and copper cable routes
- Utilities: utilities protect substations, cell towers and cable yards
- Game reserves: lodges protect fuel stores, workshops and staff compounds
- Homes: homeowners top boundary walls and back fences to stop climbers
- Schools: schools top perimeter fences at points where intruders climb in

Do I need permission to put up a fence in Northern Cape?
