Security doors, gates and bars in Bloemfontein
Bloemfontein is a large Free State city with older face-brick houses in Brandwag and Waverley, newer townhouse complexes in Langenhoven Park and Bainsvlei, student flats near the university, and big township areas such as Mangaung and Botshabelo. Older houses often have steel windows with welded bars, while newer builds use aluminium. Trellis doors, slamlock gates, sliding door gates and clear bars are all common. Government offices, schools and shops order steel doors and heavier gates. Winters are cold and dry and summers hot with storms. Fabricators and installers work from several industrial areas in the city, with a good choice of suppliers for most jobs.

Typical security gates requests in the area come from:
- Houses: hinged bar gates on the front, kitchen and patio doors, with a lock you can open from inside
- Townhouses and complexes: a gate in the approved colour over the patio or front door, fixed to the reveal
- Flats and apartments: a single gate over the front door that fits the passage without blocking neighbours
- Shops and restaurants: a lockable gate over the shopfront and a folding unit for the delivery door
- Offices and practices: a tidy entrance gate for after hours and a stronger gate on a stock room
- Schools, clinics and churches: bulk gates for classrooms and clinics that must keep escape routes clear
- Factories and warehouses: wide, heavy gates on loading doors, stores and tool cribs
- Farms and smallholdings: heavy gates over the farmhouse doors and the stores, built from thick tube
