Security doors, gates and bars in Welkom
Welkom is a planned gold-mining town built around roundabouts, with face-brick houses, townhouse complexes, flats and mine housing, plus Thabong township and nearby Odendaalsrus and Virginia. Mining has declined, so some older properties are being refitted or secured after standing empty. Houses commonly have trellis doors, slamlock gates and bars on steel windows, and shops and offices fit heavier gates and roller-type bars. Industrial sites and workshops order steel doors and frames. The climate is dry with hot summers and cold winters, so dust and rust in older fittings are common repair jobs. Fabricators and installers work from Welkom and its industrial areas.

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
- 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
- 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
