Compare QuotesWhere It Suits on a Farm
- Farmhouse and garden. A secure, see-through boundary around the living area.
- Equipment and fuel yards. Tractors, tools and diesel stores, often with a topping.
- Packsheds and stores. Secure compounds with vehicle gates.
- Selected perimeters. Road frontages or high-risk sections, rather than every boundary.
Livestock
Clearview mesh is not automatically suitable for every livestock requirement. Animal size, pressure on the fence, and injury risk all matter. If the fence must contain animals, say which animals and ask providers to confirm suitability.
Options and Trade-offs
| Option | Suits | Trade-off |
|---|---|---|
| 1.8m standard mesh | Farmhouse gardens | Lower cost; easier to climb |
| 2.4m anti-climb | Equipment and fuel yards | Higher cost; strong security |
| Razor wire or electric topping | High-risk yards | More cost; check placement |
| Wide sliding or double swing gates | Tractors and trucks | Size the opening for your largest vehicle |
See clearview razor wire installation and clearview electric fencing for toppings, and clearview gates for vehicle access.
Access and Logistics
- Delivery trucks need a usable farm road to the site.
- Travel distance can add to the quote.
- Rocky or uneven ground may need core drilling.
- Power at gates for motors, or solar charging.

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
- Length and height.
- Ground and slope.
- Gates for large vehicles.
- Toppings.
- Distance and access.
Western Cape Considerations
Rocky ground in the Winelands and on hillsides slows post setting. Sandy ground on the West Coast needs larger footings. Coastal farms need a coating suited to salt air.
What to Include in Your Enquiry

Farm Fencing Questions
Is clearview fencing used for whole farm boundaries?
Rarely, because of cost per metre. It is more common around homes, yards and stores.
Is clearview suitable for livestock?
Not for every requirement. Tell providers which animals and ask them to confirm suitability.
Will providers travel to farms outside Cape Town?
Some do. Include your location so relevant providers can respond.
What gate size do I need for a tractor?
Measure your widest vehicle and add clearance for turning.
Can gates run on solar power?
Many gate motors can be charged by solar panels where there is no mains power.
