Security doors, gates and bars in Gauteng

Gauteng mixes older face-brick houses in suburbs like Boksburg, Brakpan and Pretoria East with newer townhouse complexes in Midrand, Centurion and Fourways, and a large stock of flats and RDP and township homes. Older houses often have steel windows that take welded burglar bars, while newer builds use aluminium frames that suit clear bars or bars fixed into the reveal. Trellis doors and slamlock gates are the usual choice on front and kitchen doors, and complexes may set colour and style rules. Summer thunderstorms and dry winters are hard on poor paint. Fabricators work from industrial areas such as Germiston, Wadeville, Alrode and Pretoria West.
