Security doors, gates and bars in Cape Town
Cape Town has an enormous variety of buildings: Victorian terraces in Woodstock and Salt River, face-brick suburban houses in Claremont and Bellville, flats along the Atlantic seaboard, townhouse estates and the informal and formal areas of the Cape Flats. Salt air and strong south-easterly winds corrode steel on the coast, so galvanised or powder-coated doors and bars with stainless fixings make sense, and heritage areas may restrict what can go on the front of a house. Industrial users in Montague Gardens, Epping and Paarden Eiland order heavy gates and steel doors. Fabricators work from these industrial areas and across the metro.
Typical security door installation requests in the area come from:
- Houses: fitting a front and kitchen door and a set of window bars in one visit
- Flats and apartments: a neat fitting that does not damage common property
- Townhouses and complexes: installation that follows the body corporate colour and fixing rules
- Shops and restaurants: after-hours installation of a gate or door for a shopfront
- Factories and warehouses: heavy gate and door installation with anchors into concrete
- Offices and practices: fitting at reception or a store room, booked outside office hours
- Schools, clinics and churches: bulk installation across a school or clinic to a schedule
- Farms and smallholdings: on-site fitting with long travel, usually done in one trip
