Who needs fencing in George
George is the main town on the Garden Route, with retirement and golf estates, freestanding homes and holiday properties. Estates choose clear view or palisade perimeters, and homes add electric fencing and gates. Dairy, timber and hop farms around George and the Langkloof need stock fencing, diamond mesh and farm gates. Schools and sports clubs fence fields with mesh. High rainfall and coastal air mean galvanised and coated steel last much longer, and fire risk near plantations affects material choices.
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
- Farms: farmers secure homesteads, workshops and fuel stores
- Schools: schools secure the perimeter so only learners and staff get in
- Sports clubs: clubs secure clubhouses, equipment stores and parking
- Commercial: businesses secure offices, retail service yards and parking
