Security doors, gates and bars in East London
East London stretches along the coast from Gonubie to Nahoon and inland to Mdantsane, so salt air and humidity are part of every steel order. Face-brick houses in Beacon Bay, Vincent and Berea, flats near the beachfront, townhouse complexes and sprawling township homes all use trellis doors, slamlock gates and bars. Older houses often have steel windows that rust at the frame, and newer ones have aluminium frames that suit clear bars. Factories in the Fort Jackson and Wilsonia industrial areas, close to the port, order heavy gates and double steel doors. Fabricators and installers work from those areas and also serve Bhisho and Qonce.

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
- Flats and apartments: a slim slamlock gate on the front door with an inside release
- Townhouses and complexes: a gate on the patio door, often in black or white to meet the rules
- Shops and restaurants: a latching gate on the staff entrance and delivery door
- Factories and warehouses: heavy slamlock gates on stores and compounds, built from thick tube
- Schools, clinics and churches: slamlock gates on stores, with inside release to meet escape rules
- Offices and practices: a gate on the server room or archive, using restricted keys
