Security doors, gates and bars in Richards Bay
Richards Bay is a port and industrial town where salt air, high humidity and heat shorten the life of ordinary steel. Houses in Meerensee, Arboretum and Birdswood, townhouse complexes and guesthouses near the lagoon all benefit from galvanised trellis doors, slamlock gates and clear bars with stainless fixings. Older homes in Empangeni and eNseleni often have steel windows that rust from the inside, while newer RDP and township houses in Esikhaleni usually have simple steel frames and need standard-size bars. Industrial users in the harbour area order heavy gates, strong doors and fences in bulk. Fabricators work from Richards Bay and Empangeni.
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
- Factories and warehouses: double steel doors on plant rooms, stores, boiler rooms and workshops
- 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
- Schools, clinics and churches: fire-rated and plain steel doors for plant rooms, stores and kitchens
- Flats and apartments: a steel door for a meter room, a storeroom or a refuse area
