Security doors, gates and bars in Welkom
Welkom is a planned gold-mining town built around roundabouts, with face-brick houses, townhouse complexes, flats and mine housing, plus Thabong township and nearby Odendaalsrus and Virginia. Mining has declined, so some older properties are being refitted or secured after standing empty. Houses commonly have trellis doors, slamlock gates and bars on steel windows, and shops and offices fit heavier gates and roller-type bars. Industrial sites and workshops order steel doors and frames. The climate is dry with hot summers and cold winters, so dust and rust in older fittings are common repair jobs. Fabricators and installers work from Welkom and its industrial areas.
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
- 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
- Factories and warehouses: wide, heavy gates on loading doors, stores and tool cribs
- 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
