What to know locally in Randfontein
Mine and plant sites use heavy galvanised steel posts, often 168 mm pipe filled with concrete, around pipelines, transformers and fuel bays. In town, precast domes and cylinders suit taxi stops and municipal parks, and they are hard to steal, which matters for steel. Homeowners in Greenhills tend to choose simple powder coated driveway posts or a pair of precast units.
Who protects what in Randfontein
Randfontein was built on gold, and the mines, plants and tailings dams around it, out to Westonaria, still shape the work. Mine and plant sites want guardrails along haul roads, steel posts protecting pipelines and substations, and boom gates at the security gate, often with heavy truck traffic all day. The town itself is smaller and quieter: family homes in Greenhills and Randgate, a modest CBD with taxi traffic, and community spaces in Mohlakeng and Toekomsrus where the municipality uses posts to keep cars off parks and sidewalks. Much of the far West Rand lies on dolomite, so deep holes need care. Many installers drive in from Krugersdorp and Roodepoort, while local engineering shops supply the mines.
The requests we see from Randfontein usually come from:
- Warehouses, factories and depots: concrete filled pipe at loading docks, door frames and gas lines
- Municipalities and public spaces: posts around substations, pump stations and public toilet blocks
- Homeowners: a slim black steel post at the corner of a garage wall that keeps getting clipped

Sizes vary: 114 or 168 mm pipe, about 1,000 mm high. Here, warehouses, factories and depots lead the requests, typically for concrete filled pipe at loading docks, door frames and gas lines. One local point to raise: precast and guardrail come by truck from the West Rand and Johannesburg.
