Security doors, gates and bars in Tzaneen
Tzaneen sits in a green, humid part of Limpopo where citrus, avocado and mango farms surround the town. Houses are mostly face-brick with garden stoeps, along with townhouses, flats, shops and lodges, and township areas such as Nkowankowa and Lenyenye. Trellis doors, slamlock gates and bars on aluminium and steel windows are the usual choices. Farms and packhouses order steel doors, gates and framed bars for sheds and stores. Humidity and summer rain make rust a real concern, particularly near gardens and irrigation, so galvanised steel or a strong paint system is worth asking about. Fabricators and installers work from Tzaneen and Letsitele.
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
- Farms and smallholdings: heavy steel doors on the house and store rooms, and strong bars on windows far from the neighbours
- Shops and restaurants: folding gates over the shopfront, a steel back door and bars on the storeroom window
- Townhouses and complexes: a trellis or slamlock gate in the colour the body corporate allows, and clear bars on ground-floor windows
- Factories and warehouses: double steel doors, slamlock gates on stores and heavy bars on offices and ablutions
- Flats and apartments: one strong gate at the front door and bars on windows that face a walkway or balcony
- Schools, clinics and churches: bulk doors, gates and bars for classrooms, clinics and halls, often to a tender specification
