Security doors, gates and bars in KwaZulu-Natal
KwaZulu-Natal spans Durban's coastal suburbs and beachfront flats, Umhlanga and Ballito estates, Pietermaritzburg's older houses, inland towns like Newcastle, and large township and rural areas. Salt air and humidity along the coast corrode ordinary steel quickly, so galvanising and a good paint system matter far more than the small extra cost. Houses often have steel or aluminium windows, and many flats and complexes have body corporate rules on gate and bar styles. Trellis doors, slamlock gates and clear bars are all common. Fabricators and installers work from areas such as Pinetown, Springfield, Jacobs and Pietermaritzburg, and travel to the North and South Coasts.
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
- Flats and apartments: a light gate over a balcony slider that does not stick out of the building
- 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
- Factories and warehouses: sliding gates on wide loading doors where hinged leaves are too heavy
- Schools, clinics and churches: sliding gates for hall and canteen doors, with inside release
- Farms and smallholdings: wide sliding gates over farmhouse stoep doors, fixed with chemical anchors
- Offices and practices: a neat sliding gate over a boardroom or patio door that opens to a garden
