Security doors, gates and bars in Pinetown

Pinetown, Kloof, Hillcrest and the hills around them mix established face-brick family homes with townhouse clusters, older flats and the factory belt in New Germany and Westmead. Steep plots mean gates often have to be made to suit sloping driveways and uneven paving, and older houses frequently have steel windows with rusted frames that need careful bar fixing. The air is damp and humid, though less salty than the coast, so a good zinc primer and quality paint go a long way. Workshops in the industrial areas build trellis doors, slamlock gates and security gates for the whole valley, and many offer measuring and fitting.
