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 slamlock security gates requests in the area come from:
- Houses: a slamlock gate on the kitchen and back doors so it latches when your hands are full
- Townhouses and complexes: a gate on the patio door, often in black or white to meet the rules
- Flats and apartments: a slim slamlock gate on the front door with an inside release
- Shops and restaurants: a latching gate on the staff entrance and delivery door
- Offices and practices: a gate on the server room or archive, using restricted keys
- Schools, clinics and churches: slamlock gates on stores, with inside release to meet escape rules
- Factories and warehouses: heavy slamlock gates on stores and compounds, built from thick tube
- Farms and smallholdings: strong keyed-alike gates for the house, dairy and tool rooms
