Security doors, gates and bars in Limpopo
Limpopo stretches from Polokwane, the main commercial centre, to the bushveld lodge country around Hoedspruit and Phalaborwa, the citrus and mango farms near Tzaneen, and mining towns like Mokopane and Lephalale. Homes range from face-brick houses and townhouse complexes in Polokwane to large numbers of township and rural houses, where bars on windows and a steel door are the usual first step. Farms and lodges need gates and bars for stores, workshops and staff quarters. Intense summer heat, sun and dust age paint and wear hinges and slides. Most fabricators work from Polokwane, with a few in Tzaneen, and may add travel time for remote jobs.

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