Security doors, gates and bars in Eastern Cape
The Eastern Cape runs from Gqeberha and East London on the coast through Makhanda, Graaff-Reinet and the Karoo to Mthatha and the former Transkei. Older houses in Gqeberha and Makhanda often have steel sash windows and thick walls, and newer homes use aluminium frames. Coastal towns such as Jeffreys Bay and Port Alfred face salt air that rusts untreated steel, while inland farms and small towns need robust gates on stores and workshops. Many rural and township homes rely on a steel door and simple bars. Fabricators work mainly from Gqeberha, East London and Mthatha, and travel to smaller towns for larger jobs.
Typical sliding door security gates requests in the area come from:
- Houses: a track gate over the patio slider that slides open on summer evenings
- Farms and smallholdings: wide sliding gates over farmhouse stoep doors, fixed with chemical anchors
- Townhouses and complexes: a gate in the approved colour that stays within the patio line
- Shops and restaurants: a sliding gate behind the glass on a rear delivery door
- Flats and apartments: a light gate over a balcony slider that does not stick out of the building
- Schools, clinics and churches: sliding gates for hall and canteen doors, with inside release
- Factories and warehouses: sliding gates on wide loading doors where hinged leaves are too heavy
- Offices and practices: a neat sliding gate over a boardroom or patio door that opens to a garden
