Security doors, gates and bars in Free State

The Free State has Bloemfontein as its main city, the goldfields towns around Welkom and Kroonstad, industrial Sasolburg, and the eastern towns of Bethlehem, Harrismith and Clarens. Older houses often have steel windows and sandstone or face-brick walls, while newer ones use aluminium frames. Security doors, trellis gates and burglar bars are common on houses and flats, and shops and offices in town centres tend to fit heavier gates. Farms need gates and bars for stores, sheds and workshops. Cold winters with frost and hot dry summers move steel and loosen fixings, so good anchoring matters. Fabricators are concentrated in Bloemfontein, Welkom and Sasolburg.
