Who needs fencing in Mpumalanga
Mpumalanga fencing demand splits between the industrial Highveld and the Lowveld. Collieries, power stations and steel plants around eMalahleni, Middelburg and Secunda specify palisade and clear view with razor wire to protect equipment and cable. In the Lowveld, game reserves bordering the Kruger area build game and electric fencing, and citrus and macadamia farms fence orchards and packhouses. Homes and estates in Mbombela and White River buy palisade and electric fencing. Highveld lightning and Lowveld termites both influence material choice.
Typical sliding gates requests in the area come from:
- Mining: mines control vehicle access at plant and store entrances
- Utilities: utilities secure substation and water works entrances
- Game reserves: lodges control main entrances and service road access
- Farms: farmers secure homestead and yard entrances
