Paarl notes on installation & traffic control

Granite rock close to the surface in parts of Paarl may mean core drilling or a shallow, wide footing instead of a deep hole, so ask the installer to test dig first. Winter rain softens gravel lanes on farms, which affects how posts are set. Speed humps on farm roads and in estates are common, and guardrails protect embankments and culverts on farm roads during the wet season.

Sites and streets in Paarl

Wine farms, fruit packhouses and one of the longest main streets in the country set the tone in Paarl. Wine estates on the slopes and around Simondium and Groot Drakenstein want timber or decorative posts along driveways, tasting room parking and gravel lanes, while packhouses and cold stores in Dal Josafat and along the R45 and R101 need forklift and truck protection. Main Street has shopfronts, heritage buildings and narrow sidewalks where cars park on pavements. Winters are wet and summers very hot, with granite rock close to the surface in parts of town. Many installers and fabricators work from Dal Josafat, and heavy units also come from Cape Town along the N1.

The requests we see from Paarl usually come from:

  • Offices, hotels and car parks: stainless posts and rope at a hotel or office entrance
  • Warehouses, factories and depots: chain lines marking a walkway or a no-go area in a yard
  • Homeowners: low posts and chain along a front lawn so cars stop parking on the grass
