12 steps to make sure your electric fence will keep intruders out
An electric fence is designed to keep intruders out. Here's how you can make sure it will do just that.
Hello there I work at Bodhi Khaya Retreat Centre in Gansbaai. We have several incidents with baboons breaking the glass roof of one of our houses at the premises. This keeps recurring and is adding up now. We want to address the root cause and put electrical wiring around the house/the roof to keep the baboons away. Kind regards Emmanuel
Note that there is one which was installed by the previous owner (DIY) which is currently not working at all due to its poorly installation. My expectations is that, if I agreed the terms and conditions, installation needs to be done neatly quickly (within reasonable time frame) and also linked to my current alarm system. Yard is 32m X 34m.
Hi, I require a fence of about 4 m(length) by 1,5 m(height). A swing gate of 1,5m(length) by 1m(height) but if there's a standard gate size in terms of width/length then it can be wooden panel with the gate. I also require a swing gate of 0.9m(length) by 1m(height.) for the patio area. If possible can you quote on a wooden fence and a picket fence? The fencing required is for child safety to prevent the kids from accessing the pool area. Thanks Kind regards,

Good Morning, I would please like a quote on materials and installation of doggy bars on my existing palisade fence. We would like the easiest and most affordable solution to keep our 2 miniature (escape artist) Yorkies within our garden walls without them potentially getting hurt. Some of the existing palisades might have to be lengthened at the bottom as well. I am not sure how long the fence is. Please let me know if you need more details or if you would like to make a site visit for quoting purposes. Thank you.
Need further advice. Planning on purchasing 2 Hectare plot for residential and small scale farming. The plan is to live and do farming on 1 hectare and use the other hectare for livestock grazing for 10 years and then sell it. Is is then wise to install electric on the entire 2 hectare or just 1 hectare and do normal razor wire fencing on one. The livestock will graze and be returned each day back into the electric fenced hectare.

We are soon moving into a panhandle house and would like to enclose the garden area next to the driveway to keep the dogs off the driveway when entering. We have no idea how long the fence has to be, but I estimate it is approximately 40m in length. The fence does not have to be too high (about 1.2m in height should be sufficient)
