Security doors, gates and bars in Ladysmith
Ladysmith is a Klip River service town with older face-brick houses on wide streets, steel-framed windows in the town centre and large township areas such as Ezakheni and Steadville. Summers are hot and often stormy, so wind-driven rain gets into poorly sealed fixings and can rust the bar ends. Shops along Murchison Street and the main roads order folding shopfront gates and steel back doors, and farms on the Klip River flats ask for heavy bars and steel store doors. Fabricators in the industrial area build trellis doors, slamlock gates and security gates, and travel to Colenso, Elandslaagte and the Drakensberg foothills for larger orders.
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
- Shops and restaurants: bars on side and rear windows and on storeroom openings
- Farms and smallholdings: stout galvanised bars on old steel windows of farmhouses and stores
- 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
- Townhouses and complexes: slim bars in the complex colour, kept inside the reveal where rules allow
- Flats and apartments: bars on ground-floor and balcony windows, with an escape window in each bedroom
