Tlokweng · South-East District
Gates, fencing & carports for Tlokweng.
Tlokweng sits across the river east of Gaborone, on the road to the Tlokweng border post. It is the far side of Greater Gaborone from our Gabane workshop, so we plan Tlokweng jobs around one well-prepared measure visit and a single, complete installation.
Older wards, new plots and long boundaries
Tlokweng mixes older, traditionally laid-out areas with newer surveyed plots, and it is surrounded by grazing and farming land. For gates and fencing that brings a few practical points.
Measure the real boundary. On older plots the wall or fence line does not always match a straight plan. We measure what is actually on the ground — every change of direction, step in height and gap — so the fencing quote is right first time.
Long runs call for per-metre pricing. Larger plots and smallholdings on the edge of the village often need long stretches of palisade or mesh. We quote these per metre, including posts and fixings, so you can compare options and phase the work if you want to.
Wide gates for trucks and tractors. If a delivery truck, trailer or tractor needs to get in, the opening has to be sized for it. A wide sliding gate needs a matching length of clear wall to run back into, heavier wheels and track, and a motor rated for the gate’s weight.

Tlokweng questions, answered
What Tlokweng customers usually ask first.
Is Tlokweng inside your free-measure area?
Yes. Tlokweng is part of Greater Gaborone, so the site measurement is free.
How do you price long boundary fencing?
Per metre, including posts and fixings. Send the boundary length and the height you want on WhatsApp and we return a per-metre rate and a total.
Can a gate be wide enough for a truck or tractor?
Yes. We size the opening to the vehicle, then design the gate, track and wheels for the extra weight. A wide sliding gate needs a matching length of clear wall beside the opening to run back into.
Can you build a carport where there is no paving yet?
Yes. We set the posts on proper concrete footings; paving can be laid around them later.
