Security doors, gates and bars in Mthatha
Mthatha is the commercial centre of the Transkei, with busy shops in the town centre, houses in Southernwood, Fort Gale and Norwood, and large rural and township areas around Ngangelizwe and Mqanduli. Many shops order folding gates and steel back doors, while homes use trellis doors, steel windows with bars and slamlock gates. Heavy summer rain and humidity can rust unprotected steel, and rural homes far from tarred roads rely on standard-size doors that are easier to transport. Schools, clinics and municipal buildings buy in bulk and often need escape-route compliant gates. Fabricators work from Mthatha's industrial area and deliver across the district.

Typical security door prices requests in the area come from:
- Shops and restaurants: a folding shopfront gate and a steel back door, priced by width
- Houses: a single steel door at the front and a lighter trellis door at the back
- Schools, clinics and churches: bulk door orders priced on a specification, often through a tender
- Farms and smallholdings: heavy doors for houses and stores, with travel and galvanising adding to the total
- 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
- Townhouses and complexes: a patio sliding gate and a front door in the complex colour, priced per opening
