Security doors, gates and bars in Durban
Durban's housing runs from face-brick houses in Berea, Morningside and Westville to townhouse complexes in Umhlanga and flats along the beachfront. Warm, humid, salt-laden air attacks bare steel quickly, so galvanised or well-painted trellis doors, slamlock gates and clear bars last noticeably longer than plain mild steel, and stainless or galvanised fixings keep rust streaks off the brickwork. Older homes often have steel-framed windows that need custom-made bars, while newer ones have aluminium frames suited to clear bars. Yards and factories in Prospecton, Jacobs and Pinetown call for heavy slamlock gates and double steel doors. Fabricators and installers work from the southern basin, Springfield and the North Coast.

Typical security door prices requests in the area come from:
- Houses: a single steel door at the front and a lighter trellis door at the back
- Townhouses and complexes: a patio sliding gate and a front door in the complex colour, priced per opening
- Flats and apartments: one entrance gate at the lower end of the price range
- Shops and restaurants: a folding shopfront gate and a steel back door, priced by width
- Factories and warehouses: double steel doors and heavy gates priced on steel weight
- Offices and practices: neat doors at reception and a stronger door for the server room
- Schools, clinics and churches: bulk door orders priced on a specification, often through a tender
