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.

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
- Townhouses and complexes: a folding door across a patio opening, in a colour the complex approves
- Flats and apartments: a slim trellis gate at the front door that stacks away in a narrow passage
- 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
