Frequently asked questions about fencing pros
How much does fencing cost?
Fencing costs in South Africa range from R200 to R1,500+ per linear metre depending on the material, height, and finish. Palisade and electric fencing cost more than standard paling or wire options.
What type of fencing is best for security?
For security, palisade fencing (steel spikes) and electric fencing are the most effective. Anti-climb additions like razor wire or spikes can be added to most fence types. Your fencing contractor can assess your property and recommend the right solution.
How long does it take to install a fence?
A standard residential fence along a boundary of 30 to 50 metres takes one to three days. Larger properties, difficult terrain, or complex gates extend the installation timeline.
Do I need council approval to install a fence?
Requirements vary by municipality. High walls, electric fencing, and street-facing fences often require approval. Your fencing contractor should be familiar with local bylaws and can advise on the permits needed.
How do I maintain a metal or palisade fence?
Inspect annually for rust spots and repaint with a rust-inhibiting primer and metal paint. Check post foundations for any movement or cracking, and tighten loose bolts. Electric fencing should be serviced by a registered installer every 12 months.
Can a fencing contractor install automated gates?
Yes, most fencing contractors install and commission automated sliding and swing gates with access control. Confirm this is within their scope when booking and ask about the motor brands and warranty offered.
