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.
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
- Farms and smallholdings: heavy bars over back doors and the doors of outbuildings
- Factories and warehouses: bars over the glass doors of offices inside a yard
- Schools, clinics and churches: bars on classroom and clinic doors, specified in the tender
- Townhouses and complexes: bars on the rear patio door in the colour the body corporate allows
- Flats and apartments: a bar gate over a balcony door that still opens from inside
