Security doors, gates and bars in Free State
The Free State has Bloemfontein as its main city, the goldfields towns around Welkom and Kroonstad, industrial Sasolburg, and the eastern towns of Bethlehem, Harrismith and Clarens. Older houses often have steel windows and sandstone or face-brick walls, while newer ones use aluminium frames. Security doors, trellis gates and burglar bars are common on houses and flats, and shops and offices in town centres tend to fit heavier gates. Farms need gates and bars for stores, sheds and workshops. Cold winters with frost and hot dry summers move steel and loosen fixings, so good anchoring matters. Fabricators are concentrated in Bloemfontein, Welkom and Sasolburg.

Typical aluminium window burglar bars requests in the area come from:
- Houses: bars on aluminium windows anchored to the wall, with escape panels in bedrooms
- Farms and smallholdings: bars on newer aluminium windows of homesteads, galvanised or aluminium for the weather
- Shops and restaurants: bars behind or outside shop windows and on aluminium back office windows
- Townhouses and complexes: bars in a frame-matching colour that the body corporate approves in advance
- Factories and warehouses: bars on aluminium office and canteen windows within plants and warehouses
- Schools, clinics and churches: bars on classroom and clinic windows, with release panels for escape
- Flats and apartments: slim bars on ground-floor and balcony windows without cluttering the facade
- Offices and practices: neat aluminium bars that match the building and keep the view
