Security doors, gates and bars in Gauteng

Gauteng mixes older face-brick houses in suburbs like Boksburg, Brakpan and Pretoria East with newer townhouse complexes in Midrand, Centurion and Fourways, and a large stock of flats and RDP and township homes. Older houses often have steel windows that take welded burglar bars, while newer builds use aluminium frames that suit clear bars or bars fixed into the reveal. Trellis doors and slamlock gates are the usual choice on front and kitchen doors, and complexes may set colour and style rules. Summer thunderstorms and dry winters are hard on poor paint. Fabricators work from industrial areas such as Germiston, Wadeville, Alrode and Pretoria West.

Typical Xpanda-style security gates requests in the area come from:

  • Flats and apartments: a gate across the balcony door or front passage when swing room is tight
  • Shops and restaurants: a wide pull-across gate over the shopfront that folds to the side
  • Factories and warehouses: internal pull gates for tool stores, with a stronger gate outside

  • Schools, clinics and churches: inside gates for store rooms and offices, kept off escape routes
  • Farms and smallholdings: a quick option for store rooms and outbuilding doors that need ventilation
