Security doors, gates and bars in Bloemfontein
Bloemfontein is a large Free State city with older face-brick houses in Brandwag and Waverley, newer townhouse complexes in Langenhoven Park and Bainsvlei, student flats near the university, and big township areas such as Mangaung and Botshabelo. Older houses often have steel windows with welded bars, while newer builds use aluminium. Trellis doors, slamlock gates, sliding door gates and clear bars are all common. Government offices, schools and shops order steel doors and heavier gates. Winters are cold and dry and summers hot with storms. Fabricators and installers work from several industrial areas in the city, with a good choice of suppliers for most jobs.

Typical steel security doors requests in the area come from:
- Houses: a mesh-topped steel door on the back and side doors where a light gate would not last
- Townhouses and complexes: a steel door on a ground-floor patio entrance, in colours the body corporate allows
- Flats and apartments: a robust door on a ground-floor entrance or a stairwell landing
- Shops and restaurants: a solid or mesh steel door at the staff entrance and the storeroom
- Offices and practices: a steel door for the server room, archive or cash office
- Schools, clinics and churches: bulk steel doors for classrooms, stores and clinic pharmacies
- Factories and warehouses: heavy plate-skinned doors for plant rooms, stores and loading bays
- Farms and smallholdings: heavy steel doors on the farmhouse, workshop, feed store and chemical room
