Security doors, gates and bars in Mbombela
Mbombela has a warm, humid subtropical climate, so steel rusts faster here than on the Highveld. Face-brick houses and townhouse complexes spread from the centre through Sonheuwel and West Acres to the White River side, with flats, shops and a busy commercial core. Trellis doors, slamlock gates and sliding door gates are common on houses, and clear bars suit homes with views. Township homes in KaNyamazane and Matsulu often get window bars and a steel door. Lodges and farms in the Lowveld order gates and doors in bulk. Fabricators and installers work from the town and its industrial areas, and many offer galvanised or heavy-coat finishes.
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
- 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
- Farms and smallholdings: heavy steel doors on the house and store rooms, and strong bars on windows far from the neighbours
- 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
