Who needs fencing in Western Cape
In the Western Cape, fencing buyers range from Cape Town estates and townhouse complexes to wine farms, orchards and coastal holiday homes. Salt air along the Atlantic and False Bay coasts corrodes plain steel quickly, so galvanised and powder-coated fences are the norm near the sea. Strong south-easterly winds put load on solid panels, which is one reason open mesh and palisade are popular. Farms in the Boland and Karoo use diamond mesh and stock fencing, while schools, sports clubs and industrial parks favour clear view and palisade perimeters.
Typical sports fencing requests in the area come from:
- Homes: homeowners fence private tennis courts and play areas
- Estates: estates fence shared tennis and padel courts and play parks
- Farms: farm schools and communities fence sports grounds
- Commercial: sports centres fence five-a-side pitches and courts
- Schools: schools fence sports fields, courts and the school perimeter
- Industrial: large employers fence staff sports grounds
