Guardrails at depots, jersey barriers and cones for N1 works and events at the stadium and showgrounds are steady business here.

Bloemfontein: the properties, the ground and the installers

Courts, a large university and the N1 all meet in Bloemfontein. The judicial capital and the Free State's government seat has court buildings, provincial offices and hospitals that need perimeter posts and controlled parking, while the main campus in Brandwag and the schools around it ask for speed humps, chain and post along lawns and boom gates. Transport depots and warehouses in Hamilton, Bloemdustria and East End serve trucks on the N1, N6 and N8, so forklift posts, dock protection and guardrails keep fabricators busy. Langenhoven Park and Bainsvlei are full of complexes and estates. The ground is often clay that shrinks and swells, and winters bring hard frosts.
