Security doors, gates and bars in Cape Town
Cape Town has an enormous variety of buildings: Victorian terraces in Woodstock and Salt River, face-brick suburban houses in Claremont and Bellville, flats along the Atlantic seaboard, townhouse estates and the informal and formal areas of the Cape Flats. Salt air and strong south-easterly winds corrode steel on the coast, so galvanised or powder-coated doors and bars with stainless fixings make sense, and heritage areas may restrict what can go on the front of a house. Industrial users in Montague Gardens, Epping and Paarden Eiland order heavy gates and steel doors. Fabricators work from these industrial areas and across the metro.
Typical trellis doors requests in the area come from:
- Houses: a trellis door on the front and kitchen doors that folds clear for light and air
- Flats and apartments: a slim trellis gate at the front door that stacks away in a narrow passage
- Townhouses and complexes: a folding door across a patio opening, in a colour the complex approves
- Shops and restaurants: a lattice gate over a back door or a staff entrance
- Factories and warehouses: occasional use on office doors, with steel doors elsewhere
- Offices and practices: a light trellis gate for a reception door or a stationery room
- Schools, clinics and churches: trellis doors for classroom and church entrances, with exit keys at hand
- Farms and smallholdings: a trellis door on the farmhouse veranda and the kitchen entrance
