Security doors, gates and bars in Ladysmith

Ladysmith is a Klip River service town with older face-brick houses on wide streets, steel-framed windows in the town centre and large township areas such as Ezakheni and Steadville. Summers are hot and often stormy, so wind-driven rain gets into poorly sealed fixings and can rust the bar ends. Shops along Murchison Street and the main roads order folding shopfront gates and steel back doors, and farms on the Klip River flats ask for heavy bars and steel store doors. Fabricators in the industrial area build trellis doors, slamlock gates and security gates, and travel to Colenso, Elandslaagte and the Drakensberg foothills for larger orders.
