Klerksdorp: the houses, the weather and the locksmiths
Klerksdorp grew on gold, and many houses in Stilfontein, Orkney and older parts of town were once mine housing, so their doors often still carry original lever locks and worn hinges. Many have been sold on and rented out, and new owners ask for rekeying, better outside locks and burglar bar gates. Wilkoppies, Flamwood and Meiringspark are settled family suburbs where security gates and garage locks are common requests, while maize farms around Hartbeesfontein need gate locks, store padlocks and gun safes. Locksmiths work from Klerksdorp and drive out to the mining towns. The Highveld dust and dry winters clog gate locks, so keep keyways clean and use a dry lubricant rather than oil.
Typical door closers requests in the area come from:
- Homeowners: a closer on the door from the garage to the house so it never stays open
- Landlords and letting agents: closers on the shared entrance and fire doors of a rental block, checked between tenants
- Farms and smallholdings: a weatherproof closer on the gate to the house garden so dogs and livestock stay out
