Coating for the coast
Capstone lists ZincAlu-dipped, powder-coated (PPC) and PVC finishes. Say how close the fence is to the sea so the quotation states a coating system for that exposure.

East London sites
Where clear view fencing is used in East London.
East London is a river-port city with a motor-manufacturing plant, an industrial development zone on the West Bank and a long residential coastline from Kidd’s Beach to Gonubie. That mix produces three kinds of clear view enquiry: factory and component-supplier yards that need a controlled perimeter, schools and public buildings in the city and Mdantsane, and homes and complexes in Beacon Bay, Nahoon, Vincent and Gonubie where owners want to keep their view.
The coast is the main technical consideration. Salt-laden wind shortens the life of poorly protected steel, so the coating system matters more here than it does inland.
Local conditions
Specifying a clear view fence for East London.
The panel is the same everywhere. What changes from town to town is the ground, the exposure and the level of security the site needs. These are the points to settle for a boundary in East London.
Wind
Mesh lets wind pass through, which helps on exposed ridges and beachfront stands where a solid wall takes the full load. Post size and foundations are still confirmed per site.
Slopes and river valleys
Much of East London is hilly. Panels can be stepped down a slope, so mark the fall of the ground on your sketch.

Will a clear view fence rust near the sea?
Any steel fence near the sea needs the right protection. Tell us the distance from the shoreline. Capstone offers ZincAlu-dipped, powder-coated and PVC finishes and names the coating system in your quotation. Washing the fence with a mild detergent and water removes build-up.
