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.

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
- Shops and restaurants: clear bars behind or outside show windows so customers still see the display
- 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
- 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
- Factories and warehouses: clear bars on front offices and canteens, steel kept for the stores
- Farms and smallholdings: clear bars on the homestead windows facing the garden or veld
