- Clearview fencing for offices, retail sites, business parks and parking areas.
- The priorities are secure perimeters, controlled access, and installation that does not stop you trading.
- Compare quotes from providers who handle commercial sites.
Perimeter length, entrances and working hours are enough to start.
Compare QuotesWhat a Commercial Job Involves
- Survey. Perimeter, levels, entrances, underground services and where staff, customers and deliveries move.
- Specification. Height, anti-climb mesh, finish, gates and any security toppings, set out in a schedule.
- Phasing. Work planned section by section, or after hours, so entrances stay usable.
- Access control. Gates linked to motors, intercoms, keypads or tag readers.
Suitable Sites
- Office blocks and business parks.
- Retail frontages and shopping centre service yards.
- Staff and customer parking areas.
- Medical, veterinary and professional practices.
- Sites that rely on CCTV and guard sightlines.
Options and Trade-offs
| Decision | Options | Consider |
|---|---|---|
| Height | 1.8m, 2.1m, 2.4m | 2.1m+ for after-hours security; check approvals |
| Mesh | Anti-climb 358 for most perimeters | Standard mesh only where security is secondary |
| Vehicle gates | Sliding or double swing | Traffic volume decides the motor rating |
| Pedestrian access | Separate gate with electric lock and intercom | Keeps people out of the vehicle lane |
| Toppings | Spikes or electric strands | Visible deterrent vs street-front appearance |
For tougher perimeters see high security clearview fencing. Gate choices are compared on clearview gates.
Keeping Disruption Low
- Ask for a written programme showing which sections are open each day.
- Keep at least one entrance working at all times, or fit a temporary gate.
- Book noisy work such as core drilling outside trading hours.
- Agree where materials are stored and how the site is secured overnight.
- Confirm who moves vehicles and deliveries during work at entrances.

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
- Perimeter length and height.
- Number of vehicle and pedestrian entrances.
- Motor duty rating for busy gates.
- After-hours or phased work.
- Paving, tarmac or services to cut through.
- Access control and integration with existing systems.
Cape Town Considerations
Coastal business parks need a proper coating system and stainless fixings. Busy gates need battery backup that lasts through power cuts. Check municipal height rules and any landlord or business park design rules before ordering.
What to Include in Your Enquiry
- Business type and the area the site is in.
- Perimeter length and preferred height.
- Number of vehicle and pedestrian entrances, and daily traffic.
- Trading hours and when work can happen.

Commercial Fencing Questions
Can the fence be installed while we stay open?
Usually, if work is phased. Ask each provider how they will keep entrances usable.
What height do businesses usually choose?
Most choose 1.8 - 2.4m anti-climb mesh, depending on risk and municipal rules.
Can gates link to our access control?
Most motors and electric locks can connect to intercoms, keypads or tag readers. Name your existing system in the enquiry.
Do we need landlord approval?
If you lease the premises, yes. Business parks may also have design rules for fencing.
Is clearview better than palisade for business premises?
Clearview is harder to climb and gives better sightlines for cameras, but it costs more per metre.
