Security doors, gates and bars in Pietermaritzburg
Pietermaritzburg has many older face-brick homes with steel windows and wooden doors in Scottsville, Clarendon and Hayfields, together with townhouse complexes, student flats and schools. Wooden frames and old plaster call for longer fixings and careful drilling, and steel security doors suit the older entrances. The city sits in a warm hollow with humid summers and hard storms, so painted steel needs a zinc primer to resist rust. Farms and smallholdings around Hilton, Howick and the Midlands often fit heavier bars and steel doors on stores. Fabricators work from Willowton, Mkondeni and Pietermaritzburg's industrial zones, and also serve Edendale and Imbali.

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
- 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
- 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
Local tips for Pietermaritzburg
Common here: steel security doors for older homes, trellis doors, bars for schools and clinics. Ask each installer to allow for this: ask how the frame is fixed on old houses, as soft plaster can crumble. Work usually comes from here: fabricators in Willowton, Mkondeni and Camps Drift.
Security Door Prices are usually made in mild steel tube, bars from 12 to 16 mm, single doors 813 to 1,000 x 2,100 mm, with slamlock, cylinder or multi-point lock and powder coat, galvanised on the coast. Locally: hot humid summers and old plaster: use long fixings into sound brick.
