Security doors, gates and bars in Welkom
Welkom is a planned gold-mining town built around roundabouts, with face-brick houses, townhouse complexes, flats and mine housing, plus Thabong township and nearby Odendaalsrus and Virginia. Mining has declined, so some older properties are being refitted or secured after standing empty. Houses commonly have trellis doors, slamlock gates and bars on steel windows, and shops and offices fit heavier gates and roller-type bars. Industrial sites and workshops order steel doors and frames. The climate is dry with hot summers and cold winters, so dust and rust in older fittings are common repair jobs. Fabricators and installers work from Welkom 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
- Townhouses and complexes: clear bars that keep the view and pass complex colour and style rules
- Flats and apartments: see-through bars on balcony and high-rise windows without blocking the outlook
- 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
Local tips for Welkom
Common here: trellis doors and window bars on houses, heavy gates and steel doors for sites. Ask each installer to allow for this: for a long-empty property, ask the installer to check frames and old bars first. Work usually comes from here: fabricators and installers in Welkom and nearby Odendaalsrus.
Clear Burglar Bars are usually made in polycarbonate rods in a metal frame, windows up to about 1,800 x 1,500 mm, with fixed, or hinged with an inside latch or key and clear rods, frame in silver, white or black. Locally: dry heat, cold winters and dust: expect to grease and repaint older fittings.
What to include in your request
- Width and height of each window in mm
- Why you want clear bars: view, coast or looks
- Rod thickness and whether it has a steel core
- Frame colour and inside or outside fixing
- Which bedroom windows need a quick-release panel
