Security doors, gates and bars in Potchefstroom
Potchefstroom is a university and farming town with older face-brick houses and cottages in the centre, student flats and rooms around the campus, and newer townhouse complexes in Baillie Park and Van der Hoff Park. Landlords and student housing groups often order bars and trellis doors in bulk, and many rooms need a window that still opens from inside. Older houses have steel windows suited to welded bars, while newer ones use aluminium. Ikageng township homes fit window bars and steel doors. Summers are hot with storms. Fabricators and installers work from the town, and farm sheds and workshops order steel doors and framed gates.

Typical burglar bars requests in the area come from:
- Flats and apartments: bars on ground-floor and balcony windows, with a way out kept in each bedroom
- Houses: steel bars on every window, with a quick-release panel in each bedroom
- Townhouses and complexes: bars in a body corporate approved style, often slim and matching the frames
- Shops and restaurants: bars over rear windows, storerooms and vents, with a clear view where needed

- Farms and smallholdings: heavy bars on remote houses, stores and pump rooms, galvanised against weather
