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 weldmesh fencing requests in the area come from:
- Farms: farmers fence chicken runs, pig pens, nurseries and goat camps
- Homes: homeowners fence dog runs, vegetable gardens and side yards
- Game reserves: lodges fence vegetable gardens, small animal enclosures and staff yards
- Mining: mines fence pump houses, transformer bays and walkways
- Schools: schools fence food gardens, play areas and bicycle sheds
- Industrial: factories fence plant rooms, gas cages and equipment yards

Do I need permission to put up a fence in Free State?
