Security doors, gates and bars in Kimberley

Kimberley is an old Karoo city with Victorian and Edwardian buildings, face-brick houses in Hadison Park and Beaconsfield, flats, shops, and large township areas such as Galeshewe and Roodepan. Older buildings often have steel windows, sash windows and thick walls, and heritage rules may apply in parts of the centre, so check before changing a facade. Houses commonly fit trellis doors, slamlock gates and window bars, and shops fit heavier gates and roller-type bars. Summers are very hot and dry, with dust in hinges and tracks. Fabricators and installers work from the city and its industrial areas.
