What makes Moreleta Park different

Moreleta Park takes its name from the Moreleta Spruit, the stream that runs through the old farm the suburb was laid out on, and it is home to the Moreleta Kloof Nature Reserve. That green space shapes the fence work on the properties beside it. A stand that backs onto the spruit, a park or open ground does not have a neighbour's wall at the back, so that boundary may be palisade, mesh or a lower wall, and it often has reeds, trees and long grass growing up against it.

Those back boundaries are where electric fences here tend to give the most trouble: vegetation touching the lower strands, ground that is softer or wetter after summer rain, and a long run with nobody looking at it. If your stand borders open ground, ask the installer to treat that side as its own zone.

Typical electric fence requests in Moreleta Park

  • Wall-top fences on the side and back walls of freestanding homes.
  • Freestanding or piggyback sections where a boundary meets open ground or palisade.
  • Repairs where plants along the spruit and parks keep shorting the lower strands.
  • Certificates for houses being sold in a busy resale market.
  • Perimeter work for townhouse complexes, which needs the trustees' go-ahead.

Complexes and the certificate

In a complex, the outer perimeter is normally the body corporate's to manage, so speak to the trustees before you ask for quotes. For freestanding homes, the owner decides. Either way, any new, repaired, restrung or extended electric fence must comply with SANS 10222-3, and the user or lessor must hold a valid Electric Fence System Certificate of Compliance, which only a registered Electric Fence System Installer may issue (source: ECA(SA)). This is general information, not legal advice.

Frequently asked questions

My back wall faces a park. Does that change the fence?

Often, yes. Open ground behind a stand can mean a different boundary type and more vegetation, so the installer may suggest a separate zone or a freestanding section.

Can I put a fence on my complex's outer wall?

Only with the body corporate's approval if the wall is common property. Ask the trustees first.
