Security doors, gates and bars in Pretoria
Pretoria has a large stock of older brick houses in suburbs such as Waterkloof, Brooklyn and Arcadia, many with steel window frames and wooden front doors that take a trellis door or a slamlock gate well. Newer townhouse complexes and flats use aluminium windows, where clear bars or bars fixed inside the frame are popular. Smallholdings and farms to the east and north often need longer gates and fenced-in yards, and shops along the main routes use heavy bars and steel doors. Fabricators work from industrial areas such as Silverton, Waltloo and Pretoria West and cover most of Tshwane. Hot, dry summers and afternoon storms are tough on poor paint.

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
- 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
- Schools, clinics and churches: bulk installation across a school or clinic to a schedule
