Security doors, gates and bars in Free State
The Free State has Bloemfontein as its main city, the goldfields towns around Welkom and Kroonstad, industrial Sasolburg, and the eastern towns of Bethlehem, Harrismith and Clarens. Older houses often have steel windows and sandstone or face-brick walls, while newer ones use aluminium frames. Security doors, trellis gates and burglar bars are common on houses and flats, and shops and offices in town centres tend to fit heavier gates. Farms need gates and bars for stores, sheds and workshops. Cold winters with frost and hot dry summers move steel and loosen fixings, so good anchoring matters. Fabricators are concentrated in Bloemfontein, Welkom and Sasolburg.
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
- Farms and smallholdings: a wide door across the veranda or the farm kitchen entrance
- Shops and restaurants: a pull-across gate over a back or side opening
- Townhouses and complexes: a retractable door on the patio slider, in the colour the complex allows
- Factories and warehouses: a light barrier for canteens and offices, with steel gates on the yard
- Schools, clinics and churches: a folding door for halls and clinic waiting rooms, with exit rules checked
- Flats and apartments: a light retractable gate across a balcony door where a hinged gate cannot swing
- Offices and practices: a stack-away gate for a wide boardroom or reception door
