Security doors, gates and bars in Johannesburg
Johannesburg is a mix of older face-brick houses with steel-framed windows, townhouse complexes, flats and busy shopping strips, so the security work varies a lot from suburb to suburb. Trellis doors and slamlock gates are common on houses in the northern and western suburbs, while clear bars suit newer aluminium windows where owners want to keep the view. Flats usually need body corporate approval before anything is fitted to a balcony or front door. Shops and workshops in the southern industrial areas favour heavy bars and steel doors. Highveld summer storms and hail make a good paint finish worthwhile, and fabricators are spread across the city.
Typical Xpanda-style security gates requests in the area come from:
- Houses: an expanding gate over a patio or back door that folds away in the day
- Townhouses and complexes: a light gate over the sliding door in a colour the complex allows
- 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
- Offices and practices: a light internal gate that closes off a corridor or storeroom after hours
- Schools, clinics and churches: inside gates for store rooms and offices, kept off escape routes
