Security doors, gates and bars in Stellenbosch
Stellenbosch is a university and wine town where historic Cape Dutch houses sit beside student flats, townhouse estates, wine farms and the township of Kayamandi. Heritage areas around Dorp Street restrict what can be fitted to the front, so clear bars and simple dark trellis doors are usual. Student blocks near the university buy bars and security gates in bulk, and estates often have strict colour and design rules. Thick old walls need masonry drills and long fixings. Hot dry summers and wet winters are fairly gentle on galvanised steel. Fabricators work from Stellenbosch Industria and Somerset West and also serve Jamestown and Franschhoek.
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
- Flats and apartments: a single gate over the front door that fits the passage without blocking neighbours
- Townhouses and complexes: a gate in the approved colour over the patio or front door, fixed to the reveal
- Farms and smallholdings: heavy gates over the farmhouse doors and the stores, built from thick tube
- Shops and restaurants: a lockable gate over the shopfront and a folding unit for the delivery door
- Schools, clinics and churches: bulk gates for classrooms and clinics that must keep escape routes clear
- Offices and practices: a tidy entrance gate for after hours and a stronger gate on a stock room
