Security doors, gates and bars in Pietermaritzburg
Pietermaritzburg has many older face-brick homes with steel windows and wooden doors in Scottsville, Clarendon and Hayfields, together with townhouse complexes, student flats and schools. Wooden frames and old plaster call for longer fixings and careful drilling, and steel security doors suit the older entrances. The city sits in a warm hollow with humid summers and hard storms, so painted steel needs a zinc primer to resist rust. Farms and smallholdings around Hilton, Howick and the Midlands often fit heavier bars and steel doors on stores. Fabricators work from Willowton, Mkondeni and Pietermaritzburg's industrial zones, and also serve Edendale and Imbali.
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
- Townhouses and complexes: installation that follows the body corporate colour and fixing rules
- Flats and apartments: a neat fitting that does not damage common property
- 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
- 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
