Compare QuotesWhat a Supply-Only Order Covers
| Item | Usually included | Check |
|---|---|---|
| Panels | Yes | Height, width, aperture, wire diameter, finish |
| Posts | Sometimes priced separately | Length allows for footing depth |
| Clamp bars and bolts | Usually | Security bolt type |
| Base plates | Only if ordered | For wall or slab mounting |
| Spikes and toppings | Only if ordered | |
| Gates | Only if ordered | Frame, hinges, lock box |
| Delivery | Often extra | Truck access and offloading |
Working Out Quantities
- Panels: fence length divided by panel width, rounded up.
- Posts: one more than the number of panels, plus extra at corners and gates.
- Fixings: one clamp bar set per post, per the supplier's system.
- Gates: list each gate separately with its opening width.
Example: 30m of fence with panels about 2.5m wide needs 12 panels and 13 posts, plus extras for corners. Panel widths vary by manufacturer, so confirm the exact size with each supplier.
Availability, Delivery and Lead Times
- Stock sizes in galvanised or black are the quickest to get.
- Powder-coated colours that are not stocked may take longer to produce.
- Delivery needs truck access. Tell the supplier about narrow roads, steep driveways or no offloading help.
- Collection is possible from some suppliers if you have a suitable vehicle and trailer.

Ballpark figures, not quotations. Indicative 2026 ranges from published South African fencing price guides and retailer listings, excluding VAT unless stated. Most are national or Gauteng figures, so Cape Town quotes can land higher or lower. A site visit and a written quote set the actual price.
What Affects the Price
- Quantity: larger orders can earn better rates.
- Height, aperture and wire.
- Finish and colour.
- Posts and fixings included or extra.
- Delivery distance and offloading.
Cape Town Considerations
For coastal installs, order hot-dip galvanised steel with a powder coat and stainless or coated bolts. Cut ends made on site must be treated, or they will rust first.
What to Include in Your Enquiry
- Fence length, height and number of corners.
- Aperture and finish.
- Posts: in-ground or base-plated.
- Gates and their widths.
- Delivery area and access, or collection.
Supply or Installed?
If you would rather have it installed, see clearview fencing prices for installed costs, or request installation quotes instead.

Supplier Questions
Do suppliers install?
Some do, some only supply. Say which you want in your enquiry.
What panel width should I plan for?
Many panels are around 2.5m wide, but sizes vary. Confirm with the supplier before you set out posts.
Are posts included in the panel price?
Not always. Check each quote.
Can I buy just a few replacement panels?
Yes. See the fence panels page for how to match them.
How long do orders take?
Stock items can be quick; special colours and large orders take longer. Ask each supplier.
