With the way the crime rate has been increasing, effective security measures need to be installed to stop you and your family from becoming another statistic. It’s safe to say that fencing is an absolute must-have, as it would be your first line of defence against any potential threat. If you’re unsure on which fencing style to opt for, then you’ve come to the right place. Palisade fencing is a top choice in Cape Town, especially if demarcation, security, durability and aesthetics are your deciding factors. (Information credit: https://spfa.co.za/fencing/)

Why Palisade Fencing is the Top Choice

In terms of demarcation, palisade fencing is able to form a boundary, clearly indicating to others where public ground ends and private property begins. Thereby, adding extra security, as potential intruders would keep out if they were, excuse the cliché, ‘on the wrong side of the fence’. Palisade fencing can also provide homeowners with extra security just from the look of the fence. Intruders generally tend to stray away from households with fences, as it is an added obstruction and will require more time to physically break in.

The strength and durability of palisade fencing is thanks to the fact that it is hot dip galvanised, as per SABS standards, and bolted together thereafter. Thus, the palisade fencing is able to withstand different environments too, and more resistant to wear and tear as well as corrosion. In terms of aesthetics, if installed correctly, palisade fencing is easy on the eye and does not take away from the appeal of the household. They are also customisable in terms of the length, height and colour, as one can paint the fencing if they so wish to.

There are a number of reasons why palisade fencing is the top choice for homeowners, especially those living in Cape Town. Other than those already mentioned above, palisade fencing is easy to maintain. There isn’t much that is required, other than checking for any loose screws or bolts, as this fencing type is highly durable. Not only this, but palisade fencing has a fast installation time. If you are in dire need of added safety for your household, palisade fencing is the best option. Instead of constructing an entire boundary wall, you can install palisade fencing.

The Different Applications of Palisade Fencing in Cape Town

Palisade fencing can be used in a variety of different applications. These vary between residential and industrial use. The most common applications of palisade fencing in Cape Town are in security estates, wine farms, golf estates, industrial premises and commercial properties, schools, community and sports fields, and especially in parks and recreational areas. Palisade fencing can be used anywhere in Cape Town where a perimeter fence is needed.

As with any home installation, do your homework on the different companies before choosing a palisade fencing provider. Always check that the fencing they install is hot dip galvanised, according to SABS standards, and not made from pre-galvanised coil, as this will affect the durability of the fence. Thereby, making it more prone to corrosion and wear and tear.
