Security doors, gates and bars in Durban
Durban's housing runs from face-brick houses in Berea, Morningside and Westville to townhouse complexes in Umhlanga and flats along the beachfront. Warm, humid, salt-laden air attacks bare steel quickly, so galvanised or well-painted trellis doors, slamlock gates and clear bars last noticeably longer than plain mild steel, and stainless or galvanised fixings keep rust streaks off the brickwork. Older homes often have steel-framed windows that need custom-made bars, while newer ones have aluminium frames suited to clear bars. Yards and factories in Prospecton, Jacobs and Pinetown call for heavy slamlock gates and double steel doors. Fabricators and installers work from the southern basin, Springfield and the North Coast.
Typical front door security gates requests in the area come from:
- Houses: a front gate in a modern bar pattern that matches the window bars
- Townhouses and complexes: a gate in the approved colour with slim bars that suits the facade
- Flats and apartments: a neat gate on the entrance door that fits a shared passage
- Shops and restaurants: a gate over the street entrance that looks tidy when open
- Factories and warehouses: a plain steel gate on the site office entrance
- Offices and practices: a refined gate on the practice entrance or reception door
- Schools, clinics and churches: a gate on the front office door, kept clear of escape routes
