Welkom notes on access & perimeter

Steel roller shutters, reinforced doors and strong padlocks are the basics for vacant properties, while occupied shops add burglar bars and gate motors. Electric fencing with an alarm link protects scrapyards and yards, though sand and salt call for regular checks. In Thabong, bars, security gates and sliding gates with motors are the typical choices. Razor wire must be fixed securely, as wind loosens poorly mounted coils.

Properties and sites in Welkom

Welkom is a planned goldfields town of wide streets and traffic circles, where some mines have scaled back and many properties stand empty or only partly used. Security here often means caretaking vacant buildings, protecting stock and metal on commercial premises, and guarding scrapyards, depots and workshops with night guards and CCTV. Homeowners in Dagbreek, Riebeeckstad and Jan Cilliers Park combine alarms, beams and armed response, while Thabong residents ask for gate motors, bars and patrol links. Farms near Virginia and Hennenman join rural safety networks. Salt pans and summer storms bring lightning, so surge protection matters. Installers work from Welkom, with Bloemfontein suppliers on larger jobs.

What to include in your request

  • Boundary length in metres, or the plot size
  • Wall-top or freestanding fence
  • Number of corners and gates to include
  • Whether you need a certificate for a sale
  • If it must link to an alarm and have battery backup

A rough plot size is enough: the site plan on this page turns it into metres of boundary, guard posts or camera positions.
