Security doors, gates and bars in Mahikeng
Mahikeng and neighbouring Mmabatho combine older government housing, face-brick houses, flats, offices and public buildings with township homes in Montshiwa and Lomanyaneng. Offices, clinics and schools order steel doors, gates and framed bars, often through formal tenders and set specifications. Houses commonly fit trellis doors, slamlock gates and window bars, and some older homes have hollow block walls where fixings need care. The climate is hot and dry for much of the year with summer storms, so dust in tracks and hinges is the usual wear problem. Fabricators and installers work from Mahikeng and travel to Lichtenburg and Zeerust.

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
- Schools, clinics and churches: bulk doors, gates and bars for classrooms, clinics and halls, often to a tender specification
- Offices and practices: a neat gate at reception, a steel door for the server or cash room and clear bars on street windows
- Shops and restaurants: folding gates over the shopfront, a steel back door and bars on the storeroom window
- Flats and apartments: one strong gate at the front door and bars on windows that face a walkway or balcony
- Townhouses and complexes: a trellis or slamlock gate in the colour the body corporate allows, and clear bars on ground-floor windows
- Farms and smallholdings: heavy steel doors on the house and store rooms, and strong bars on windows far from the neighbours
