Introduction
Whether you are securing a new plot in Visakhapatnam, protecting farmland in Vizianagaram, or marking boundaries for a venture in Srikakulam, the first step to land ownership is security.
At SSR Wire Products, we have spent over 25 years helping land owners protect their investments. We often get asked: “Should I build a brick wall or a precast wall?” or “Which wire thickness is best for keeping cattle out?”
This comprehensive guide about boundary wall fencing covers everything you need to know about modern fencing solutions, cost comparisons, and durability in Andhra’s climate.
Chapter 1: Understanding Your Fencing Options
Not all boundaries are created equal. The right choice depends on your budget, timeline, and security needs.
1. Precast Compound Walls (The Modern Choice)
Precast walls (often called “readymade walls”) have revolutionized construction in Andhra Pradesh. Unlike traditional brick walls that take weeks to build, precast walls can be installed in days.
Best For: Residential plots, ventures, and boundary demarcation.
Key Advantage: They are strictly cured (watered) at our factory, ensuring higher strength than site-cured brick walls.
Design Options: We offer various designer patterns that look aesthetic without needing extra plastering.
2. Wire Fencing (The Cost-Effective Choice)
For large acres of land, agriculture, or temporary security, wire fencing is the standard.
Tata Wiron (G.I. Wire): We use genuine Tata Wiron because it resists rust in humid coastal areas like Vizag.
Chain Link Mesh: Perfect for keeping small animals out while maintaining visibility.
Barbed Wire: The classic deterrent for trespassers.
Chapter 2: Precast Walls vs. Traditional Brick Walls
This is the #1 question we receive. Here is the honest comparison:
| Feature | Precast Compound Wall | Traditional Brick Wall |
|---|---|---|
| Speed | 100 meters installed in ~2 days | 100 meters takes ~2 weeks |
| Cost | 30-40% Cheaper | Expensive (Labor + Cement + Bricks) |
| Durability | High (Factory cured concrete) | Variable (Depends on mason skill) |
| Re-usability | Movable (Can be shifted to new site) | Permanent (Must be demolished) |
Expert Tip: If you are a real estate developer in Vizianagaram, precast walls are an asset because you can dismantle and move them once the plots are sold.
Chapter 3: Choosing the Right Wire for Coastal Areas
At SSR Wire Products, we follow a strict “Plant & Post” method to ensure your fence stands tall during cyclones and heavy monsoons.
Pit Digging: We dig deep pits at equal intervals (usually 6-7 feet apart).
Column Setting: Reinforced concrete posts are inserted and jammed with concrete mix.
Panel/Wire Fixing:
For Walls: Designer planks are slid between the grooved columns.
For Wire: G.I. wire is stretched and tightened using turnbuckles to prevent sagging.
Chapter 4: The Installation Process
Living near the coast (Visakhapatnam, Kakinada) means salt air causes rust. Regular iron wire will rust in 6 months.
Why Galvanized Iron (G.I.)? G.I. wire has a zinc coating that acts as a shield against rust.
Thickness Matters: We recommend different gauges (thickness) based on use:
Heavy Gauge: For permanent security and cattle barriers.
Medium Gauge: For garden fencing and temporary marking.
Chapter 5: Maintenance & Longevity
Precast Walls: Virtually zero maintenance. They do not require painting, though you can paint them for aesthetics.
Wire Fencing: Check for loose poles after heavy rains. If using high-quality Tata Wiron, rust shouldn’t be an issue for years.
