Question 1

How much does Clear View fencing cost per meter?

Accepted Answer

Clear View fencing typically costs between R1000 and R1300 per meter installed, though prices can range from R350 to R4000 per meter depending on specifications. The final price depends on several factors like height, security level, coating type, and aperture size. For budget planning, expect around R1150 per meter for medium security levels.

Question 2

What factors affect the price of Clear View fencing?

Accepted Answer

Several key factors influence the cost: Security level (Low security around R1000/meter, medium security around R1150/meter, high security around R1300/meter), Coating type (PVC coated versions cost 20-30% more than galvanized), Height (taller fences require more materials and labor), and Installation location (remote areas may have higher transport costs).

Question 3

Is Clear View fencing more expensive than alternatives?

Accepted Answer

Clear View fencing costs between R1000-R1300 per meter, which is comparable to palisade fencing (R900-R1900 per meter) but more expensive than electric fencing (R200-R300 per meter). However, many find it offers better long-term value due to durability and low maintenance requirements.

Question 4

What size are Clear View fence panels?

Accepted Answer

Clear View fence panels are typically available in widths of 3 meters and heights ranging from 1.8 meters, 2.1 meters, 2.4 meters, to 3 meters. Some manufacturers offer panel lengths of 3050mm with heights from 1200mm up to 3000mm.

Question 5

What are the mesh opening sizes available?

Accepted Answer

Common aperture sizes include: 76mm x 12.7mm for high security, 75mm x 25mm for medium security, and 50mm x 100mm or 75mm x 50mm for lower security applications.

Question 6

How strong is Clear View fencing?

Accepted Answer

Clear View fencing is designed to be anti-climb and anti-cut, with small 12mm gaps that make it virtually impossible to climb and difficult to cut with bolt cutters. ClearVu Reinforced has been tested against cutting tools, acetylene torches, and heat sources, consistently proving difficult to cut through.

Question 7

Can Clear View fencing be cut?

Accepted Answer

While the small 12mm apertures make it difficult to cut with bolt cutters, Clear View fencing can technically be cut with proper tools. However, it's very robust and difficult to cut with traditional bolt or wire cutters, which is precisely why it's valued for security applications.

Question 8

What's the best time of year to install a fence?

Accepted Answer

Fall and winter are often the best times for fence installation due to fewer scheduling delays, better rates, less vegetation obstacles, and milder weather conditions. Spring and summer are the busiest seasons for fence companies, leading to longer wait times.

Question 9

How long does Clear View fencing last?

Accepted Answer

Most Clear View fences come with a 10-year warranty and are made to withstand harsh South African weather conditions. The longevity depends on the coating chosen - galvanized, powder coated, or PVC options are available for different durability levels.

Question 10

Does Clear View fencing affect the color or view?

Accepted Answer

The panels are see-through and appear almost invisible from a distance. Clear View fencing offers clear visibility and is specifically designed as a 'see through fence', making it excellent for surveillance and maintaining sight lines while providing security.

Question 11

Is Clear View fencing good for CCTV surveillance?

Accepted Answer

Clear View fences are particularly important for unobstructed camera surveillance, either from the front or at an angle, and don't obstruct views. They're specifically described as 'CCTV optimized for better visuals of the other side of the security border fencing'.

Question 12

Can you add electric fencing to Clear View panels?

Accepted Answer

Yes, Clear View fences can be combined with electric fencing, and additional accessories like security spikes, razor wire, or electric fencing with alarms can be added on top.
