Who needs fencing in Free State
The Free State is mostly farmland, so stock fencing, diamond mesh and gates for camps and homesteads make up a large share of demand. Maize and cattle farmers replace and extend boundary fences, and game farms near the Vaal and in the eastern highlands use taller game fencing. In Bloemfontein and Welkom, homes, townhouse complexes and schools buy palisade, clear view and electric fencing. Mines and the Sasolburg industrial area need secure perimeters. Hard winter frost and summer storms favour galvanised wire and sturdy, well-braced posts.
Typical sports fencing requests in the area come from:
- Farms: farm schools and communities fence sports grounds
- Homes: homeowners fence private tennis courts and play areas
- Game reserves: lodges fence staff sports fields and guest courts
- Mining: mining towns fence stadiums and community sports fields
- Schools: schools fence sports fields, courts and the school perimeter
- Industrial: large employers fence staff sports grounds
