Security doors, gates and bars in Gauteng

Gauteng mixes older face-brick houses in suburbs like Boksburg, Brakpan and Pretoria East with newer townhouse complexes in Midrand, Centurion and Fourways, and a large stock of flats and RDP and township homes. Older houses often have steel windows that take welded burglar bars, while newer builds use aluminium frames that suit clear bars or bars fixed into the reveal. Trellis doors and slamlock gates are the usual choice on front and kitchen doors, and complexes may set colour and style rules. Summer thunderstorms and dry winters are hard on poor paint. Fabricators work from industrial areas such as Germiston, Wadeville, Alrode and Pretoria West.

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
• Factories and warehouses: heavy plate-skinned doors for plant rooms, stores and loading bays
• 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
• Farms and smallholdings: heavy steel doors on the farmhouse, workshop, feed store and chemical room
