Security doors, gates and bars in eMalahleni
eMalahleni has older face-brick houses in suburbs such as Del Judor and Tasbet Park, newer townhouse complexes, and a large township and RDP housing stock in KwaGuqa and Ackerville. Older homes often have steel window frames that take welded burglar bars, while newer ones use aluminium and suit clear or bolt-through bars. Trellis doors and slamlock gates are the usual fit on front and kitchen doors. Mining and transport depots along the N4 and N12 order heavier gates, steel doors and framed bars. Coal dust and Highveld summer storms mean paint on steel needs regular touching up. Fabricators and installers work from the town and its industrial areas.
