Who needs fencing in Centurion
Centurion is dominated by security estates, townhouse complexes and office parks, so clear view fencing with electric strands is very common. Freestanding homes in Lyttelton and Eldoraigne add palisade fronts and sliding gates, while warehouses in Samrand and Highveld use palisade and boom gates for truck access. Schools and sports clubs fence fields with diamond mesh or palisade. Smallholdings towards Olievenhoutbosch and Irene need stock and dog fencing. Dolomite in parts of the area means post foundations sometimes need extra care.

Typical security fencing requests in the area come from:
- Estates: estates protect the full perimeter with anti-climb fencing and electric strands
- Homes: homeowners secure boundaries with palisade or clear view and an electric fence
- Commercial: businesses secure offices, retail service yards and parking
- Logistics: depots secure warehouses, truck yards and container stacks
- Schools: schools secure the perimeter so only learners and staff get in
- Sports clubs: clubs secure clubhouses, equipment stores and parking
