Who needs fencing in Welkom
Welkom is the centre of the Free State goldfields, and mines, tailings plants and contractor yards need secure palisade and razor wire perimeters, as cable and metal theft are serious problems. Homes in suburbs such as Flamingo Park and Riebeeckstad buy palisade fronts, electric fencing and gates, while schools and sports clubs fence fields with diamond mesh. Maize and cattle farms around Odendaalsrus and Theunissen need stock fencing and camp gates. Flat, open ground makes long, straight runs common.
Typical weldmesh fencing requests in the area come from:
- Mining: mines fence pump houses, transformer bays and walkways
- Homes: homeowners fence dog runs, vegetable gardens and side yards
- Farms: farmers fence chicken runs, pig pens, nurseries and goat camps

- Schools: schools fence food gardens, play areas and bicycle sheds
