Locks and keys in Pinetown
Pinetown is part factory town, part hillside suburb. Down in New Germany, Westmead and Mahogany Ridge, warehouses and workshops need roller door locks, padlocks on yards and access control at staff entrances. Up the hill in Kloof, Gillitts and Hillcrest, larger homes on big plots have long driveways, sliding gates and many outside doors, often with a mix of lever and cylinder locks left by different owners. Locksmiths reach the area along the M13 and N3 from Pinetown itself and from Durban, and most take after-hours calls. The mist and heavy summer rain on the ridges mean outside locks rust and timber frames swell, so latches that stick or will not catch are a regular call here.
Typical gate locks requests in the area come from:
- Factories, warehouses and workshops: heavy padlock bolts and weld-on lock boxes on yard and loading bay gates
- Homeowners: a slam lock on the front security gate keyed alike with the door behind it
- Offices, shops and practices: a sliding gate lock on the shopfront trellis gate, locked from inside and out
