Security doors, gates and bars in Bellville
Bellville is a northern suburbs hub with older face-brick houses in Panorama, Boston and Welgemoed, many townhouse complexes, student flats near the university and a busy commercial centre. Offices and shops around Voortrekker Road and Tygervalley order reception gates, folding shopfront gates and steel back doors. Winter rain and the south-easter blow in from the coast but the air is less salty than at the beach, so a good primer and paint finish usually lasts well, though galvanised steel is safer. Industrial areas in Stikland and Bellville South order heavy slamlock gates and double steel doors, and fabricators there also serve Durbanville, Parow and Kuils River.
Typical security doors requests in the area come from:
- Houses: a security door at the front and kitchen doors, burglar bars on the windows and a gate on the patio slider
- Townhouses and complexes: a trellis or slamlock gate in the colour the body corporate allows, and clear bars on ground-floor windows
- Flats and apartments: one strong gate at the front door and bars on windows that face a walkway or balcony
- Shops and restaurants: folding gates over the shopfront, a steel back door and bars on the storeroom window
- Offices and practices: a neat gate at reception, a steel door for the server or cash room and clear bars on street windows
- Factories and warehouses: double steel doors, slamlock gates on stores and heavy bars on offices and ablutions
- Schools, clinics and churches: bulk doors, gates and bars for classrooms, clinics and halls, often to a tender specification
Local tips for Bellville
Most work in Bellville comes from here: fabricators in Stikland, Bellville South and Parow Industria. Commonly fitted: clear bars and trellis doors for houses, reception gates and shop gates. When you ask for quotes, ask for colour samples if your complex has a body corporate colour rule.
