Hard ground
Calcrete and rock near the surface are common. Excavation for post foundations is slower in this ground and is priced accordingly. Where a concrete beam is preferred, posts can be fixed on base plates.
Clear view fencing in Kimberley and the Northern Cape, supplied or installed by Capstone. See-through welded-mesh panels from 1.8 m to 3.0 m for government, mining, school and residential boundaries.

Kimberley is the capital of the Northern Cape, and a large share of its fenced property is public: provincial departments, clinics and hospitals, schools, the university campus and municipal depots. These sites usually need a boundary that controls access but stays open to view, which is the purpose of a clear view fence.
The city’s diamond-mining history also left dumps, old workings and mining land that must be kept closed to the public, and the farms and solar installations of the wider region add long, remote perimeters.
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 Kimberley.
Calcrete and rock near the surface are common. Excavation for post foundations is slower in this ground and is priced accordingly. Where a concrete beam is preferred, posts can be fixed on base plates.
Summer heat and strong ultraviolet light are harder on coatings than on the steel. Ask for the finish and colour to be stated in the quotation.
Kimberley is far from most suppliers, so delivery is a real part of the price. Ordering the full quantity, gates included, in one load keeps that cost down.
