Security doors, gates and bars in Richards Bay
Richards Bay is a port and industrial town where salt air, high humidity and heat shorten the life of ordinary steel. Houses in Meerensee, Arboretum and Birdswood, townhouse complexes and guesthouses near the lagoon all benefit from galvanised trellis doors, slamlock gates and clear bars with stainless fixings. Older homes in Empangeni and eNseleni often have steel windows that rust from the inside, while newer RDP and township houses in Esikhaleni usually have simple steel frames and need standard-size bars. Industrial users in the harbour area order heavy gates, strong doors and fences in bulk. Fabricators work from Richards Bay and Empangeni.

Typical door burglar bars requests in the area come from:
- Houses: bars over the kitchen and patio doors, matched to the window bars
- Townhouses and complexes: bars on the rear patio door in the colour the body corporate allows
- Factories and warehouses: bars over the glass doors of offices inside a yard
- 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
- Schools, clinics and churches: bars on classroom and clinic doors, specified in the tender
- Flats and apartments: a bar gate over a balcony door that still opens from inside
Local tips for Richards Bay
Common here: galvanised doors and gates for the coast, heavy gates and steel doors in industry. Ask each installer to allow for this: ask whether the galvanising covers the whole door or only the frame. Work usually comes from here: fabricators in Richards Bay and Empangeni.
Door Burglar Bars are usually made in mild steel, 12 to 16 mm round or square bar, most doors 813 to 1,000 mm x 2,032 to 2,100 mm, with fixed, or hinged with a lock box and cylinder and powder coat, galvanised underneath on the coast. Locally: salt air and lagoon humidity: galvanised steel and stainless fixings last.
