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 steel doors and frames requests in the area come from:
- Houses: a solid steel door on the garage, laundry or a granny flat entrance
- Flats and apartments: a steel door for a meter room, a storeroom or a refuse area
- Townhouses and complexes: a steel door to a garage or a bin store, painted to suit the complex
- Shops and restaurants: a solid steel staff door and storeroom door
- Factories and warehouses: double steel doors on plant rooms, stores, boiler rooms and workshops
- Schools, clinics and churches: fire-rated and plain steel doors for plant rooms, stores and kitchens
- Farms and smallholdings: steel doors on workshops, chemical stores, feed rooms and pump houses
- Offices and practices: a steel door for server, archive and plant rooms

Common here: galvanised bars and gates near the coast, clear bars and trellis doors in complexes.
