Security doors, gates and bars in Polokwane
Polokwane is the commercial centre of Limpopo, with face-brick houses in Bendor, Flora Park and Westenburg, many townhouse complexes and flats, and large township areas such as Seshego and Mankweng. Estates and complexes often set rules on gate style, so check before ordering. Houses commonly have trellis doors, slamlock gates, sliding door gates and clear bars on aluminium windows, while shops and offices fit heavier gates and steel doors. Summers are hot with strong sun that fades paint, so a good powder coat matters. Fabricators and installers work from the city and its industrial areas, and travel to farms and nearby towns.
