Security doors, gates and bars in Free State
The Free State has Bloemfontein as its main city, the goldfields towns around Welkom and Kroonstad, industrial Sasolburg, and the eastern towns of Bethlehem, Harrismith and Clarens. Older houses often have steel windows and sandstone or face-brick walls, while newer ones use aluminium frames. Security doors, trellis gates and burglar bars are common on houses and flats, and shops and offices in town centres tend to fit heavier gates. Farms need gates and bars for stores, sheds and workshops. Cold winters with frost and hot dry summers move steel and loosen fixings, so good anchoring matters. Fabricators are concentrated in Bloemfontein, Welkom and Sasolburg.

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
- Farms and smallholdings: strong keyed-alike gates for the house, dairy and tool rooms
- Shops and restaurants: a latching gate on the staff entrance and delivery door
- Townhouses and complexes: a gate on the patio door, often in black or white to meet the rules
- 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
- Flats and apartments: a slim slamlock gate on the front door with an inside release
- Offices and practices: a gate on the server room or archive, using restricted keys
