Security doors, gates and bars in Kariega
Kariega, once Uitenhage, is a motor industry town where factories and suppliers sit beside residential areas such as Despatch, Rosedale and Langa. Houses are mostly face-brick with steel windows in the older parts and aluminium frames in newer ones, and township areas such as KwaNobuhle have many small houses that use standard trellis doors and window bars. The town is inland from the sea, but wind and dry heat still wear on paint, so a good primer helps. Industrial users order heavy slamlock gates, double steel doors and strong rooms, and fabricators in the industrial area also serve Gqeberha and the Kruisrivier valley.

Typical security door locks requests in the area come from:
- Houses: a cylinder lock box on the front gate and the same key on the kitchen and patio gates
- Factories and warehouses: heavy lock cases on yard gates and store rooms, with a restricted key system
- Shops and restaurants: a lock on the shopfront gate and a stronger bolt on the back door
- Townhouses and complexes: keyed alike cylinders for front and patio gates, kept within the complex rules
- Schools, clinics and churches: a master key plan for rooms and classrooms, with fire exits that open from inside
- Farms and smallholdings: heavy lock boxes on workshop and store room doors, with a master key for the farm manager
- Flats and apartments: a neat lock box on the entrance gate with a thumb-turn inside for quick exit
