Flat ground, long runs
Level stands make for straight panel lines, but long runs need the gate positions and corners marked. Send a sketch or a marked-up aerial image with the total metres.
Clear view fencing in Welkom and the Free State goldfields, supplied or installed by Capstone. Anti-climb welded-mesh panels in 1.8 m to 3.0 m heights, quoted per site.

Welkom is the centre of the Free State goldfields, with Odendaalsrus, Virginia, Allanridge and Riebeeckstad around it. Mining still defines many perimeters here, from operating shafts and plants to closed infrastructure that has to be secured against theft and trespass. See-through mesh is used on these lines because patrols can inspect the fence and the ground on both sides without opening a gate.
The town was laid out with wide roads and large stands, so schools, churches, retirement villages and business premises often have long street boundaries. A clear view fence gives those boundaries a neat, uniform line and keeps the property visible from the road, which many owners prefer to a precast wall.
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 Welkom.
Level stands make for straight panel lines, but long runs need the gate positions and corners marked. Send a sketch or a marked-up aerial image with the total metres.
For closed shafts, substations and pump stations, ask for the tighter apertures and an anti-dig detail, with spikes or flatwrap on top.
Welkom is dry and far inland, so galvanised, ZincAlu, powder-coated and PVC finishes are all suitable. The choice is about appearance and expected service life.

They do different jobs. A wall gives privacy. A clear view fence keeps the boundary visible to neighbours, patrols and cameras, and its small mesh openings give little grip for hands and feet. Capstone can quote the mesh from 1.8 m to 3.0 m so you can compare.
