Security doors, gates and bars in Cape Town
Cape Town has an enormous variety of buildings: Victorian terraces in Woodstock and Salt River, face-brick suburban houses in Claremont and Bellville, flats along the Atlantic seaboard, townhouse estates and the informal and formal areas of the Cape Flats. Salt air and strong south-easterly winds corrode steel on the coast, so galvanised or powder-coated doors and bars with stainless fixings make sense, and heritage areas may restrict what can go on the front of a house. Industrial users in Montague Gardens, Epping and Paarden Eiland order heavy gates and steel doors. Fabricators work from these industrial areas and across the metro.
Typical clear burglar bars requests in the area come from:
- Houses: clear bars on view windows and patio panels, steel bars kept at the back
- Flats and apartments: see-through bars on balcony and high-rise windows without blocking the outlook
- Townhouses and complexes: clear bars that keep the view and pass complex colour and style rules
- Shops and restaurants: clear bars behind or outside show windows so customers still see the display
- Factories and warehouses: clear bars on front offices and canteens, steel kept for the stores
- Offices and practices: tidy clear bars for reception and meeting room windows that keep daylight
- Schools, clinics and churches: clear bars on school and clinic windows, with release panels for escape
- Farms and smallholdings: clear bars on the homestead windows facing the garden or veld
