ClearVu 358 vs ClearVu 515: What Is the Difference?
The numbers refer to the mesh aperture size. ClearVu 358 has a 76.2mm x 12.7mm aperture — the gaps are too small for fingers or toes to grip, making it virtually impossible to climb. Originally developed by Cochrane Global, this is the most popular choice for high-security applications.
ClearVu 515 has a slightly wider aperture at 76.2mm x 25.4mm. It is still an effective anti-climb panel but offers slightly less resistance to cutting tools. The 515 is a good mid-range option for residential properties and estates where budget is a consideration.
For maximum security, we recommend the 358 specification. For residential boundaries where visibility and aesthetics are the priority, the 515 performs well at a lower cost. Read our full clearview fencing service page for more detail on specifications.
Factors That Affect Clearview Fencing Cost
1. Fence Height
Taller fences require more material and larger posts set in deeper concrete foundations. A 2.4m fence costs roughly 20-30% more than a 1.8m installation of the same length.
2. Terrain and Soil Conditions
Rocky ground, clay soils, or steep slopes increase labour time and may require specialised equipment. Pretoria's red clay soil can be particularly challenging during dry winter months when the ground is hard-baked.
3. Access to the Site
If our team cannot drive a vehicle close to the fence line, materials must be carried in by hand. This adds time and cost. Narrow passages between buildings or fences on steep embankments are typical examples.
4. Quantity and Run Length
Longer runs are more cost-effective per metre because the setup and mobilisation costs are spread over a greater distance. Projects over 100 metres typically qualify for volume discounts.
5. Extras and Add-Ons
Adding a cranked top, palisade-style anti-climb brackets, or integrating electric fencing along the top increases the total cost. Gates and access points are priced separately.
How Does Clearview Compare to Other Fencing?
Clearview fencing sits in the mid-to-upper price range for security fencing in Pretoria. Palisade fencing is generally cheaper (R450 - R900/m), while wall-top electric fencing is more affordable still (R350 - R800/m) but serves a different purpose. For a detailed comparison, see our guide on palisade fencing.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I supply my own clearview panels to save money?
Yes, we offer labour-only installation if you source your own panels. However, we recommend using our supply chain — we source directly from certified manufacturers, and our panels come with a product warranty that owner-supplied panels may not carry.
Do you offer payment plans?
We require a 50% deposit before work begins and the balance on completion. For larger projects, we can discuss a staged payment schedule linked to project milestones.
How long does installation take?
A typical 50 to 80 metre residential installation takes 2 to 4 working days. Commercial projects with longer runs can take 1 to 3 weeks depending on complexity.
