Security doors, gates and bars in Stellenbosch
Stellenbosch is a university and wine town where historic Cape Dutch houses sit beside student flats, townhouse estates, wine farms and the township of Kayamandi. Heritage areas around Dorp Street restrict what can be fitted to the front, so clear bars and simple dark trellis doors are usual. Student blocks near the university buy bars and security gates in bulk, and estates often have strict colour and design rules. Thick old walls need masonry drills and long fixings. Hot dry summers and wet winters are fairly gentle on galvanised steel. Fabricators work from Stellenbosch Industria and Somerset West and also serve Jamestown and Franschhoek.
Typical burglar bar designs requests in the area come from:
- Houses: scroll or cottage pane bars on the street-facing windows, plain bars at the back
- Flats and apartments: simple, light designs that do not block the view or fire escape
- Townhouses and complexes: slim modern frames in the colour the complex allows
- Farms and smallholdings: strong plain or cottage pane bars suited to farmhouse windows
- Shops and restaurants: slim frames or clear bars that keep the display visible
- Schools, clinics and churches: durable plain designs specified for schools and clinics
- Offices and practices: tidy modern frames that match the building
