What to know locally in Tzaneen
Wet clay and steep slopes mean footings need drainage and a bit more depth, and gravel driveways can wash out around posts in a big storm. Guardrails on farm roads and private passes above Tzaneen are a regular job, priced by the metre plus end terminals. Public roads, including the R71, fall under the road authorities, so ask before adding speed humps or barriers there.
Who protects what in Tzaneen
Green hills, steep passes and heavy summer rain set Tzaneen apart from the dry bushveld around it. Packhouses for avocados, mangoes, bananas and citrus in Letsitele and around the town need forklift protection, loading dock posts and boom gates for the trucks that arrive in season. The mountain roads up to Haenertsburg and Magoebaskloof carry log trucks and holiday traffic past sharp bends, so guardrails and road barriers come up often. Plantations and sawmills nearby mean treated timber poles are easy to find. In town, shopping centres and the hospital ask for posts and speed humps, and lodges and guest farms want rustic posts along gravel parking. Polokwane is roughly 100 km away for more suppliers.
The requests we see from Tzaneen usually come from:
- Warehouses, factories and depots: steel posts core drilled into a warehouse floor at racking ends and doors
- Offices, hotels and car parks: posts set along an office entrance and car park walkway, with paving reinstated
- Shops, malls and petrol stations: impact posts core drilled into a shopfront forecourt after a ram raid scare
