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 steel doors and frames requests in the area come from:
- Houses: a solid steel door on the garage, laundry or a granny flat entrance
- 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
- Farms and smallholdings: steel doors on workshops, chemical stores, feed rooms and pump houses
- 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
Local tips for Pretoria
Most work in Pretoria comes from here: fabricators in Silverton, Waltloo and Pretoria West. Commonly fitted: slamlock and trellis doors on houses, clear bars in complexes, gates on smallholdings. When you ask for quotes, older steel window frames: ask how the bars will be fixed to the frame.
Steel Doors and Frames are usually made in 1.2 mm steel skin door, 1.6 mm pressed frame, single 813 to 1,000 mm, double up to 1,800 mm, with mortice lock, deadlock or multi-point lock and primed, then enamel or powder coat. Locally: hot sun and afternoon storms: a good powder coat lasts longer than plain paint.
