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 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
- Shops and restaurants: slim frames or clear bars that keep the display visible
- Townhouses and complexes: slim modern frames in the colour the complex allows
- Flats and apartments: simple, light designs that do not block the view or fire escape
- Factories and warehouses: plain heavy bars for offices and workshops in a yard
- Offices and practices: tidy modern frames that match the building
- Schools, clinics and churches: durable plain designs specified for schools and clinics
