Security doors, gates and bars in Mpumalanga
Mpumalanga has a mix of mining and power towns on the Highveld, such as eMalahleni, Middelburg and Secunda, and the greener Lowveld around Mbombela, White River and Hazyview. Houses are mostly face brick or plaster with a stoep, and many older homes keep steel windows that suit welded bars. Lodges, guesthouses and farms fit gates and bars on outbuildings, stores and staff housing, and shops in town centres use heavy gates and roll-up style doors. Humid Lowveld air and storms make rust a real concern, so finish matters. Fabricators and installers work mainly from Mbombela, eMalahleni and Middelburg, and travel to outlying farms and lodges.

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
- Farms and smallholdings: a trellis door on the farmhouse veranda and the kitchen entrance
- 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
- Townhouses and complexes: a folding door across a patio opening, in a colour the complex approves
- Schools, clinics and churches: trellis doors for classroom and church entrances, with exit keys at hand
- Flats and apartments: a slim trellis gate at the front door that stacks away in a narrow passage
- Offices and practices: a light trellis gate for a reception door or a stationery room
