Security doors, gates and bars in Richards Bay
Richards Bay is a port and industrial town where salt air, high humidity and heat shorten the life of ordinary steel. Houses in Meerensee, Arboretum and Birdswood, townhouse complexes and guesthouses near the lagoon all benefit from galvanised trellis doors, slamlock gates and clear bars with stainless fixings. Older homes in Empangeni and eNseleni often have steel windows that rust from the inside, while newer RDP and township houses in Esikhaleni usually have simple steel frames and need standard-size bars. Industrial users in the harbour area order heavy gates, strong doors and fences in bulk. Fabricators work from Richards Bay and Empangeni.

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
- Factories and warehouses: heavy slamlock gates on stores and compounds, built from thick tube
- 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
- 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
