Security doors, gates and bars in Free State
The Free State has Bloemfontein as its main city, the goldfields towns around Welkom and Kroonstad, industrial Sasolburg, and the eastern towns of Bethlehem, Harrismith and Clarens. Older houses often have steel windows and sandstone or face-brick walls, while newer ones use aluminium frames. Security doors, trellis gates and burglar bars are common on houses and flats, and shops and offices in town centres tend to fit heavier gates. Farms need gates and bars for stores, sheds and workshops. Cold winters with frost and hot dry summers move steel and loosen fixings, so good anchoring matters. Fabricators are concentrated in Bloemfontein, Welkom and Sasolburg.

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
- Farms and smallholdings: heavy steel doors on the farmhouse, workshop, feed store and chemical room
- Shops and restaurants: a solid or mesh steel door at the staff entrance and the storeroom
- Townhouses and complexes: a steel door on a ground-floor patio entrance, in colours the body corporate allows
- Factories and warehouses: heavy plate-skinned doors for plant rooms, stores and loading bays
- Schools, clinics and churches: bulk steel doors for classrooms, stores and clinic pharmacies
- Flats and apartments: a robust door on a ground-floor entrance or a stairwell landing
- Offices and practices: a steel door for the server room, archive or cash office
