Security doors, gates and bars in Upington
Upington is a hot desert town on the Orange River, with face-brick and plastered houses, flats, shops and lodges, and township areas such as Paballelo and Louisvale. Along the river, vineyards and date and raisin farms order steel doors, gates and framed bars for packsheds and stores. Houses usually fit trellis doors, slamlock gates and window bars. Summers are extremely hot, which can warm steel and dry out paint, and fine dust works into hinges and sliding tracks. Powder coat and sealed bearings help. Fabricators and installers work from Upington, and many travel along the river to Keimoes and Kakamas.
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
- Farms and smallholdings: heavy lock boxes on workshop and store room doors, with a master key for the farm manager
- 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
- Offices and practices: master key systems so staff open only the doors they need
- Factories and warehouses: heavy lock cases on yard gates and store rooms, with a restricted key system
- Schools, clinics and churches: a master key plan for rooms and classrooms, with fire exits that open from inside
