Security doors, gates and bars in Ladysmith
Ladysmith is a Klip River service town with older face-brick houses on wide streets, steel-framed windows in the town centre and large township areas such as Ezakheni and Steadville. Summers are hot and often stormy, so wind-driven rain gets into poorly sealed fixings and can rust the bar ends. Shops along Murchison Street and the main roads order folding shopfront gates and steel back doors, and farms on the Klip River flats ask for heavy bars and steel store doors. Fabricators in the industrial area build trellis doors, slamlock gates and security gates, and travel to Colenso, Elandslaagte and the Drakensberg foothills for larger orders.

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
- Shops and restaurants: a solid steel staff door and storeroom door
- Farms and smallholdings: steel doors on workshops, chemical stores, feed rooms and pump houses
- 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
- Townhouses and complexes: a steel door to a garage or a bin store, painted to suit the complex
- Flats and apartments: a steel door for a meter room, a storeroom or a refuse area
