Who needs fencing in Port Elizabeth
Gqeberha, still widely searched as Port Elizabeth, is home to vehicle assembly plants, component suppliers and the Coega zone, all of which fence with palisade, clear view and razor wire. Homes in Walmer, Summerstrand and Lorraine add palisade, electric fencing and gates, while estates fit clear view perimeters. The coast is very windy and salty, so galvanised and powder-coated steel are standard. Smallholdings and game farms on the city edges use diamond mesh and game fencing.
