Security doors, gates and bars in Pretoria
Pretoria has a large stock of older brick houses in suburbs such as Waterkloof, Brooklyn and Arcadia, many with steel window frames and wooden front doors that take a trellis door or a slamlock gate well. Newer townhouse complexes and flats use aluminium windows, where clear bars or bars fixed inside the frame are popular. Smallholdings and farms to the east and north often need longer gates and fenced-in yards, and shops along the main routes use heavy bars and steel doors. Fabricators work from industrial areas such as Silverton, Waltloo and Pretoria West and cover most of Tshwane. Hot, dry summers and afternoon storms are tough on poor paint.

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
- Townhouses and complexes: a gate in the approved colour that stays within the patio line
- Flats and apartments: a light gate over a balcony slider that does not stick out of the building
- Farms and smallholdings: wide sliding gates over farmhouse stoep doors, fixed with chemical anchors
- 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
Local tips for Pretoria
In Pretoria, what people fit most is this: slamlock and trellis doors on houses, clear bars in complexes, gates on smallholdings. Makers and installers: fabricators in Silverton, Waltloo and Pretoria West. A useful tip: older steel window frames: ask how the bars will be fixed to the frame.
Sliding Door Security Gates are usually made in steel tube frame, vertical bars, steel track, panels up to 3,000 x 2,400 mm, with hook or bolt lock with a key deadbolt and powder coat, colour-matched to the frame.
