Security doors, gates and bars in Bloemfontein
Bloemfontein is a large Free State city with older face-brick houses in Brandwag and Waverley, newer townhouse complexes in Langenhoven Park and Bainsvlei, student flats near the university, and big township areas such as Mangaung and Botshabelo. Older houses often have steel windows with welded bars, while newer builds use aluminium. Trellis doors, slamlock gates, sliding door gates and clear bars are all common. Government offices, schools and shops order steel doors and heavier gates. Winters are cold and dry and summers hot with storms. Fabricators and installers work from several industrial areas in the city, with a good choice of suppliers for most jobs.
Typical retractable security doors requests in the area come from:
- Houses: a stack-away gate across a patio or sliding door that opens fully in the day
- Townhouses and complexes: a retractable door on the patio slider, in the colour the complex allows
- Flats and apartments: a light retractable gate across a balcony door where a hinged gate cannot swing
- Shops and restaurants: a pull-across gate over a back or side opening
- Offices and practices: a stack-away gate for a wide boardroom or reception door
- Schools, clinics and churches: a folding door for halls and clinic waiting rooms, with exit rules checked
- Factories and warehouses: a light barrier for canteens and offices, with steel gates on the yard
- Farms and smallholdings: a wide door across the veranda or the farm kitchen entrance
