Security doors, gates and bars in Stellenbosch

Stellenbosch is a university and wine town where historic Cape Dutch houses sit beside student flats, townhouse estates, wine farms and the township of Kayamandi. Heritage areas around Dorp Street restrict what can be fitted to the front, so clear bars and simple dark trellis doors are usual. Student blocks near the university buy bars and security gates in bulk, and estates often have strict colour and design rules. Thick old walls need masonry drills and long fixings. Hot dry summers and wet winters are fairly gentle on galvanised steel. Fabricators work from Stellenbosch Industria and Somerset West and also serve Jamestown and Franschhoek.
