Tzaneen notes on security & access
Packhouses and cold stores want steel posts and flexible barriers at racking, doors and charging bays, and controlled truck entrances in harvest season. Shops in the CBD and Nkowankowa ask for posts after smash and grabs and cars mounting the pavement. Farms and guest houses use boom gates at gravel entrances, and many need a manual release because power in the hills can be patchy.
Tzaneen: the properties, the ground and the installers
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.

- Contractors and event organisers: fold-down posts fitted to bays as part of a parking upgrade
