Security doors, gates and bars in Johannesburg

Johannesburg is a mix of older face-brick houses with steel-framed windows, townhouse complexes, flats and busy shopping strips, so the security work varies a lot from suburb to suburb. Trellis doors and slamlock gates are common on houses in the northern and western suburbs, while clear bars suit newer aluminium windows where owners want to keep the view. Flats usually need body corporate approval before anything is fitted to a balcony or front door. Shops and workshops in the southern industrial areas favour heavy bars and steel doors. Highveld summer storms and hail make a good paint finish worthwhile, and fabricators are spread across the city.
