Security doors, gates and bars in Welkom
Welkom is a planned gold-mining town built around roundabouts, with face-brick houses, townhouse complexes, flats and mine housing, plus Thabong township and nearby Odendaalsrus and Virginia. Mining has declined, so some older properties are being refitted or secured after standing empty. Houses commonly have trellis doors, slamlock gates and bars on steel windows, and shops and offices fit heavier gates and roller-type bars. Industrial sites and workshops order steel doors and frames. The climate is dry with hot summers and cold winters, so dust and rust in older fittings are common repair jobs. Fabricators and installers work from Welkom and its industrial areas.
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
- 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
- Flats and apartments: slim bars on ground-floor and balcony windows without cluttering the facade
- Factories and warehouses: bars on aluminium office and canteen windows within plants and warehouses
- Offices and practices: neat aluminium bars that match the building and keep the view
- Schools, clinics and churches: bars on classroom and clinic windows, with release panels for escape
