Security doors, gates and bars in Ladysmith
Ladysmith is a Klip River service town with older face-brick houses on wide streets, steel-framed windows in the town centre and large township areas such as Ezakheni and Steadville. Summers are hot and often stormy, so wind-driven rain gets into poorly sealed fixings and can rust the bar ends. Shops along Murchison Street and the main roads order folding shopfront gates and steel back doors, and farms on the Klip River flats ask for heavy bars and steel store doors. Fabricators in the industrial area build trellis doors, slamlock gates and security gates, and travel to Colenso, Elandslaagte and the Drakensberg foothills for larger orders.

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
- Shops and restaurants: folding gates over the shopfront, a steel back door and bars on the storeroom window
- Farms and smallholdings: heavy steel doors on the house and store rooms, and strong bars on windows far from the neighbours
- 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
- 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
