Security doors, gates and bars in Johannesburg
Johannesburg is a mix of older face-brick houses with steel-framed windows, townhouse complexes, flats and busy shopping strips, so the security work varies a lot from suburb to suburb. Trellis doors and slamlock gates are common on houses in the northern and western suburbs, while clear bars suit newer aluminium windows where owners want to keep the view. Flats usually need body corporate approval before anything is fitted to a balcony or front door. Shops and workshops in the southern industrial areas favour heavy bars and steel doors. Highveld summer storms and hail make a good paint finish worthwhile, and fabricators are spread across the city.
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
- Factories and warehouses: heavy slamlock gates on stores and compounds, built from thick tube
- 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
