Security doors, gates and bars in Durban
Durban's housing runs from face-brick houses in Berea, Morningside and Westville to townhouse complexes in Umhlanga and flats along the beachfront. Warm, humid, salt-laden air attacks bare steel quickly, so galvanised or well-painted trellis doors, slamlock gates and clear bars last noticeably longer than plain mild steel, and stainless or galvanised fixings keep rust streaks off the brickwork. Older homes often have steel-framed windows that need custom-made bars, while newer ones have aluminium frames suited to clear bars. Yards and factories in Prospecton, Jacobs and Pinetown call for heavy slamlock gates and double steel doors. Fabricators and installers work from the southern basin, Springfield and the North Coast.

Typical burglar bar prices requests in the area come from:
- Houses: bars on every ground-floor window, priced per window and matched in colour
- Townhouses and complexes: a uniform set of bars that meets the complex rules, often quoted for the whole unit
- Flats and apartments: bars on balcony and ground-floor windows, with a quick-release on one bedroom opening
- Shops and restaurants: bars on side and rear windows, with a folding gate across the front
- Factories and warehouses: heavy bars on offices and stores, priced by steel weight
- Offices and practices: neat or clear bars that protect without darkening the room
- Schools, clinics and churches: bulk bar orders for classrooms and clinics, with escape-route panels where needed
