Security doors, gates and bars in Ladysmith
Ladysmith is a Klip River service town with older face-brick houses on wide streets, steel-framed windows in the town centre and large township areas such as Ezakheni and Steadville. Summers are hot and often stormy, so wind-driven rain gets into poorly sealed fixings and can rust the bar ends. Shops along Murchison Street and the main roads order folding shopfront gates and steel back doors, and farms on the Klip River flats ask for heavy bars and steel store doors. Fabricators in the industrial area build trellis doors, slamlock gates and security gates, and travel to Colenso, Elandslaagte and the Drakensberg foothills for larger orders.

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
- Shops and restaurants: a latching gate on the staff entrance and delivery door
- Farms and smallholdings: strong keyed-alike gates for the house, dairy and tool rooms
- 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
- 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
