Security doors, gates and bars in Mahikeng
Mahikeng and neighbouring Mmabatho combine older government housing, face-brick houses, flats, offices and public buildings with township homes in Montshiwa and Lomanyaneng. Offices, clinics and schools order steel doors, gates and framed bars, often through formal tenders and set specifications. Houses commonly fit trellis doors, slamlock gates and window bars, and some older homes have hollow block walls where fixings need care. The climate is hot and dry for much of the year with summer storms, so dust in tracks and hinges is the usual wear problem. Fabricators and installers work from Mahikeng and travel to Lichtenburg and Zeerust.
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
- Schools, clinics and churches: a master key plan for rooms and classrooms, with fire exits that open from inside
- Offices and practices: master key systems so staff open only the doors they need
- Shops and restaurants: a lock on the shopfront gate and a stronger bolt on the back door
- Flats and apartments: a neat lock box on the entrance gate with a thumb-turn inside for quick exit
- Townhouses and complexes: keyed alike cylinders for front and patio gates, kept within the complex rules
- Farms and smallholdings: heavy lock boxes on workshop and store room doors, with a master key for the farm manager
