Who needs fencing in Bloemfontein
Bloemfontein's fencing demand comes from homes and townhouse complexes in suburbs such as Langenhoven Park, Woodland Hills and Fichardt Park, plus courts, government buildings, universities and schools. Estates and institutions favour clear view and palisade, and homes add electric fencing and motorised gates. Smallholdings and farms around the city need diamond mesh, stock fencing and farm gates. Highveld thunderstorms, hail and hard winter frost mean energisers need surge protection and galvanised wire holds up best.
Typical security fencing requests in the area come from:
- Homes: homeowners secure boundaries with palisade or clear view and an electric fence
- Estates: estates protect the full perimeter with anti-climb fencing and electric strands
- Municipal: municipalities secure depots, reservoirs and pump stations
- Schools: schools secure the perimeter so only learners and staff get in
- Farms: farmers secure homesteads, workshops and fuel stores
- Commercial: businesses secure offices, retail service yards and parking
