Security doors, gates and bars in KwaZulu-Natal
KwaZulu-Natal spans Durban's coastal suburbs and beachfront flats, Umhlanga and Ballito estates, Pietermaritzburg's older houses, inland towns like Newcastle, and large township and rural areas. Salt air and humidity along the coast corrode ordinary steel quickly, so galvanising and a good paint system matter far more than the small extra cost. Houses often have steel or aluminium windows, and many flats and complexes have body corporate rules on gate and bar styles. Trellis doors, slamlock gates and clear bars are all common. Fabricators and installers work from areas such as Pinetown, Springfield, Jacobs and Pietermaritzburg, and travel to the North and South Coasts.

Typical window burglar bars requests in the area come from:
- Houses: bars on every window, with a hinged or quick-release panel in each bedroom
- Flats and apartments: bars on ground-floor and balcony windows, with an escape window in each bedroom
- Townhouses and complexes: slim bars in the complex colour, kept inside the reveal where rules allow
- Shops and restaurants: bars on side and rear windows and on storeroom openings
- Factories and warehouses: heavy frames over office, canteen and stores windows
- Schools, clinics and churches: bars on ground-floor windows with release panels to meet escape rules
- Farms and smallholdings: stout galvanised bars on old steel windows of farmhouses and stores
- Offices and practices: window bars fitted in a neat style for ground-floor offices and archive rooms
Local tips for KwaZulu-Natal
Common here: galvanised bars and gates near the coast, clear bars and trellis doors in complexes. Ask each installer to allow for this: check your body corporate's rules, and ask for stainless or coated fixings. Work usually comes from here: fabricators in Pinetown, Springfield, Jacobs and Pietermaritzburg.
Window Burglar Bars are usually made in steel tube frame with 12 or 16 mm solid bars, most windows 600 to 1,800 mm wide, with fixed, or hinged with an inside latch or lock and powder coat over galvanised steel. Locally: salt air and humidity near the sea: ask for galvanised steel and sealed welds.
What to include in your request
- Width and height of every window in mm
- Which windows open outwards and which way
- Which bedroom windows need a quick-release panel
- Bar pattern and spacing you prefer
- Frame type and wall finish around the window
