Germiston has a long industrial history and a lot of older housing, including face-brick houses in suburbs such as Lambton, Primrose and Dinwiddie, many with steel windows, and flats close to the town centre. Bedfordview next door has larger homes, townhouse complexes and shopping centres, where clear bars and neat powder-coated gates are more common. Warehouses and workshops around Wadeville, Isando and Elsburg need heavy steel doors, roller gates and strong bars. Fabricators are plentiful in Germiston and the surrounding East Rand industrial areas, so installers can often start quickly. Industrial air and summer storms can wear on poor paint, so ask about the finish.
