Who needs fencing in Gauteng
Gauteng is the country's busiest fencing market. Security estates and townhouse complexes in Johannesburg, Pretoria and Centurion fit clear view mesh with electric strands, while freestanding homes add palisade fronts, sliding gates and motors. Factories and warehouses on the East Rand and in Midrand rely on palisade and razor wire, and smallholdings on the city edges use diamond mesh to keep dogs and livestock in. Highveld lightning means energisers need good earthing and surge protection, and break-ins keep demand for perimeter upgrades steady all year.
Typical sports fencing requests in the area come from:
- Estates: estates fence shared tennis and padel courts and play parks
- Homes: homeowners fence private tennis courts and play areas
- Industrial: large employers fence staff sports grounds
- Commercial: sports centres fence five-a-side pitches and courts
- Logistics: distribution centres fence staff sports and recreation areas
- Schools: schools fence sports fields, courts and the school perimeter
