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 door burglar bars requests in the area come from:
- Houses: bars over the kitchen and patio doors, matched to the window bars
- Shops and restaurants: bars over a glazed back door or a rear delivery door
- Flats and apartments: a bar gate over a balcony door that still opens from inside
- Townhouses and complexes: bars on the rear patio door in the colour the body corporate allows
- Offices and practices: neat bars over a ground-floor door onto a parking area
- Schools, clinics and churches: bars on classroom and clinic doors, specified in the tender
- Factories and warehouses: bars over the glass doors of offices inside a yard
- Farms and smallholdings: heavy bars over back doors and the doors of outbuildings
