Security doors, gates and bars in Newcastle
Newcastle serves northern KwaZulu-Natal with a mix of face-brick homes in Fernwood, Lennoxton and Pioneer Park, townhouses, and large township areas such as Madadeni and Osizweni. Many older houses still have steel windows with simple trellis doors, and newer builds use aluminium frames. Summers are hot with heavy thunderstorms, while winter frosts and dry air are tougher on paint than rust, though a zinc primer is still worth having. Shops in the town centre order folding gates and steel back doors, and factories in the industrial area need heavy slamlock gates. Fabricators work from the Newcastle industrial area and also serve Dannhauser and Utrecht.
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
- Shops and restaurants: a lockable gate over the shopfront and a folding unit for the delivery door
- Factories and warehouses: wide, heavy gates on loading doors, stores and tool cribs
- Townhouses and complexes: a gate in the approved colour over the patio or front door, fixed to the reveal
- Schools, clinics and churches: bulk gates for classrooms and clinics that must keep escape routes clear
- Farms and smallholdings: heavy gates over the farmhouse doors and the stores, built from thick tube
- Flats and apartments: a single gate over the front door that fits the passage without blocking neighbours
Local tips for Newcastle
In Newcastle, what people fit most is this: trellis doors and bars for houses, folding gates and steel doors for shops. Makers and installers: fabricators in the Newcastle industrial area and Madadeni. A useful tip: ask for the bars to be fixed through the brick and not only into plaster.
Security Gates are usually made in mild steel tube, 12 to 16 mm round bars, single gates up to 1,000 x 2,200 mm, with slam lock, deadlock or cylinder lock and powder coat over galvanised or primed steel. Locally: hot storms and cold dry winters: paint needs a proper zinc primer.
What to include in your request
- Width and height of each opening in mm, smallest of three measurements
- Gate type: hinged, folding, expanding or sliding
- Which way it must open and which side it hinges
