Free Standing Electric Fence Prices In Kenya

In Kenya, prices generally range from approximately Ksh 1,500 to Ksh 2,500 per meter for the installation of free standing electric fences.

This includes the cost of materials, labor, and any additional features requested by the client. It’s common for providers to offer free site assessments to determine the exact cost tailored to the specific location and requirements.

 

Average pricing for free standing electric fences in Kenya ranges from approximately Ksh 1,500 to Ksh 2,500 per meter, depending on site assessment and materials used. 

Installing a free-standing electric fence in Kenya involves several factors that influence the overall cost. Here’s a general guide to pricing based on typical installations:

1. Choice of Materials:
   • Wooden post and Steel Posts: These are durable and commonly used for their strength. Prices can range from KES 1,500 to KES 2,500 per meter, depending on the gauge and quality. Wooden Posts are an alternative option, offering a natural look but requiring maintenance. Costs are similar to steel posts, depending on the type of wood and treatment.
   • Concrete Posts: Less common but very sturdy, these can be more expensive due to material and installation costs.
2. Energizer Machine:
   • A powerful energizer is essential to electrify the fence wires. Costs vary based on the brand, capacity, and features. Expect prices to range from KES 15,000 to KES 50,000 or more, depending on the specifications.
3. Installation Costs:
   • Installation fees typically include labor, setup of posts, wiring, energizer installation, and testing. Prices can range widely depending on the complexity of the installation and site conditions.
4. Total Estimated Cost:
   • For a rough estimate:
     • Assume a middle range of KES 2,000 per meter for materials (posts and wiring).
     • Calculate based on the perimeter of the area to be fenced.
     • Add the cost of the energizer and installation fees.
     • For example, for a 100-meter perimeter (on 50 by 100 plot):
       • Material cost (100 meters * KES 2,000/meter) = KES 200,000
       • Energizer cost (estimate) = KES 30,000
       • Installation fee (estimate) = KES 40,000
       • Total estimated cost = KES 200,000 + KES 30,000 + KES 40,000 = KES 270,000
