Decorative Slabs and How They are Used

Decorative Slabs and How They are Used

Even though they are your first line of defence, there is absolutely no law that declares that precast concrete walling should be plain, dull, or boring. At MFB Walling we manufacture decorative slabs that will not only enhance the neighbourhood but also offer pavement appeal to your property. They are stylish and attractive and offer the same protection that plain vibracrete walling has to offer.

Our decorative precast slabs, paired with plain, Louvre, or Columbo walling, offer a stunning touch and create a unique and beautiful look that can be customised according to your needs, taste and budget.

In this article, we will discuss four types of decorative slabs we offer at MFB Walling:

 

  1. Candle: Available in 1ft and 2ft, these slabs not only add a touch of class, but also increased visibility.
  2. Diamond: Available in 1ft, 2ft and 2ft long diamond, these slabs not only add elegance, but they also provide excellent drainage when strategically placed at the bottom section of the wall.  A perfect combination of style and functionality.
  3. Square Cross: Available in 1ft, this slab creates a unique and stylish look that will turn heads.
  4. Columbo Coping: Available in 1ft, this slab is the ace that finishes Columbo walling off to perfection.

Enhancing Business and Residential Security with Razor Wire

Enhancing Business and Residential Security with Razor Wire

Concrete palisade fencing and precast walling have long been the go-to choice for South Africans seeking to secure their properties. However, in today’s world, additional security measures have become necessary. That’s where MFB Walling comes in. Our razor wire is the perfect addition to your perimeter boundary security system, providing an extra layer of protection against potential intruders.

 

Razor wire is made from high-tension strands with exceptionally sharp and strong barbs, made from steel. It is mounted upon prefabricated walls. The strands can be coiled to create a spiral top of very sharp points to deter individuals from attempting to enter the premises.

 

Deterring the Intruder with Razor Wire Security Solutions

Due to the sharp edges and the coiled formation of razor wire, these types of security additions tend to deter criminals from scaling perimeter walls, and this plays a huge role in protecting your family and possessions. Criminals would rather avoid proactive security solutions like steel wall spikes and razor wire and settle for less secure properties.

 

Razor Wire is a Cost-Effective Security Solution

The design and layout of razor wire in strategic places along your perimeter fencing makes it difficult for any potential intruder to transverse your boundary wall. The risk of injury is high, which adds to the deterrent and is why it is so effective. Because of its make-up and design, it is also difficult to cut through without carrying the right tools. Additionally, the equipment needed to cut or separate the wire is awkward to carry and is a dead giveaway for law enforcement on general patrols.

 

It is also a cost-effective product. Its price per metre is minimal in comparison to other security measures. Installation is quick and easy and razor wire requires very little maintenance over its lifespan. As such, it is an inexpensive way to add a highly effective, additional security measure to your property without having to rely on electricity to power a deterrent.

 

Razor Wire is a Sustainable Security Solution

Razor wire, despite its intimidating appearance, is actually a sustainable security solution that provides effective protection for various applications. Furthermore, razor wire requires minimal maintenance and can withstand harsh weather conditions without losing its effectiveness. Unlike other security measures that may harm the environment or require constant replacement, razor wire offers a sustainable solution that ensures both security and environmental responsibility. Whether used in prisons, military installations, or private properties, razor wire continues to be a reliable and eco-friendly choice for maintaining safety and security.

 

Where to Find Cost-Effective, Superior-Quality Razor Wire

As a family-run business, we at MFB Walling understand the importance of protecting your family and assets. We have been securing properties through vibracrete walling and steel gates since 1996. For 27 years, we have formed a first line of defence for thousands of homes and business properties. Adding to these superior-quality security solutions, we also offer razor wire and steel spiked walling security to give you complete peace of mind.

The Advantages of Having a Precast Braai When It Comes to Outdoor Cooking

The Advantages of Having a Precast Braai When It Comes to Outdoor Cooking

Why decide to delve into manufacturing a DIY precast braai? The answer is simple – South Africans love to braai! Both visitors and tourists to our beautiful country learn very quickly that a good outdoor braai (or barbeque, as they like to call it) is a great idea, no matter the season. Meat has to be cooked on fire – it is the South African way – and we know just how to fabricate a precast braai for the occasion.

At MFB Walling, our professional builders and skilled contractors have been manufacturing, supplying, and installing superior-quality precast concrete walls for 27 years. Our skills, expertise, attention to detail, and excellent customer service have helped our business grow to be a well-established, trusted, reliable, and reputable leader in our industry.

In this article, we’ll explore the benefits of having a DIY precast braai as well as how we can help you obtain your own.

 

A Precast Braai is Perfect for Any Venue or Occasion

Our DIY braais are the ultimate solution for those who love to braai and enjoy the great outdoors. With our easy-to-assemble kits, you can create your own custom braai that fits perfectly in your backyard or outdoor patio. Our braais are made from high-quality materials that are built to last, ensuring that you can enjoy delicious meals for years to come.

But that is not the sole reason why we at MFB Walling are manufacturing these wonderful outdoor braais. They are perfect for bed and breakfast establishments and self-catering units or holiday bungalows where guests need to prepare their own meals.

Not only are they fireproof, but they are also resistant to extreme heat, making them a safe and reliable option for all your braaing needs.

 

Build a Precast Braai That Meets Your Needs

Whether pre-prepared, pressed briquettes, Namibian charcoal, Black Wattle, or Rooikraans is your preferred fuel, as long as the outdoor cooking gets done simultaneously with the pap, sauce, and salads, everyone should be happy. And that is why a precast braai is so convenient. They are so cost-efficient and so easy to install that you might want two of them in tandem – one for the hot-coal fire to char the steak, chops, and chicken just to your liking and the other for a slow-cooked vegetable “potjie” and the “beer broodjie” done on low heat in a cast-iron pot to compliment the meal.

 

Precast Braais That Last a Lifetime

The beauty of our precast braai is that it is rough and robust. It can take the beatings of the harsh African climate and will last as long as our superior boundary walls. Whether you’re a seasoned braai pro or just starting out, our DIY braai is designed with simplicity and functionality in mind. It is tall enough to be at a comfortable outdoor cooking height for braaing or adding mixes to the pot but short enough to be the centre of attention for an after-meal fire on those chilly winter nights.

Our DIY braais are the perfect addition to any outdoor space. So fire up the grill and get ready to create delicious meals while enjoying the great outdoors. Contact us today to purchase yours.
