Electric fences for Kew's industrial and residential boundaries
Kew is about 4 km east of Sandton City. In Kew, security involves a complex mix of residential and commercial properties standing side-by-side. A freestanding house might share a wall with a warehouse, while business premises near main arteries like London Road and Louis Botha Avenue present long, uninterrupted perimeters. This blend of property types means securing boundaries where residential and industrial areas meet is a common challenge.
Our approach in Kew is to treat each boundary according to its use. For the long fences around commercial sites, we recommend multiple zones to pinpoint faults quickly. On any property facing a public road, such as Corlett Drive, we make sure warning signs are correctly installed and visible. We also focus on making sure all gates, whether at a home or a workshop, are secure but do not shock people on entry.
When a property is sold in Kew, an Electric Fence System Certificate is usually requested for any change of ownership after 1 October 2012. For a business or freestanding home, the seller arranges this. In a sectional title complex, the body corporate is responsible. it pays to book this inspection early in the sales process. Tyson is registered with the Department of Employment and Labour as an electric fence installer, and proof of registration is available on request.

Questions from Kew
We own a commercial property in Kew. Does our electric fence have different requirements than a residential one?
The core standards are the same, but on long commercial perimeters, we focus on solid zoning so a fault only affects a small section. We also make sure warning signs are correctly spaced and visible to the public, especially along busy access routes like Wynberg Road.
I'm selling my house in Kew and it shares a wall with a business. Who is responsible for the certificate for that section?
If you are selling a freestanding house, you as the seller are responsible for arranging the certificate for the entire perimeter of your property. The inspection will cover all sections of your fence, including any shared boundaries, to make sure they comply.
Every Kew property is different, so we look before we quote. Send us a photo or call, and we will arrange a visit and a written quote for your electric fence work.
