Who needs fencing in Nelspruit
Mbombela, widely known as Nelspruit, sits in the Lowveld among citrus and macadamia farms, lodges and game reserves. Homes and estates in the city and White River choose palisade, clear view and electric fencing, often on hilly granite plots. Farms fence orchards, packhouses and staff housing, and game reserves near the Kruger area build high game and electric fences to manage wildlife. Hot, humid summers and termites mean galvanised steel and steel posts outlast untreated timber.
Typical steel gates requests in the area come from:
- Game reserves: lodges fit heavy gates at the main entrance and staff areas
- Farms: farmers hang steel gates at the homestead and yard entrances
- Homes: homeowners fit driveway and pedestrian gates in boundary walls and fences
- Estates: estates install main entrance and service gates at the gatehouse
- Schools: schools install separate vehicle and learner gates at the entrance
- Commercial: offices and shopping centres fit gates at service yards and parking
