What to know locally in Limpopo
Polokwane homes in Bendor, Flora Park and Fauna Park mostly pair a security gate with a deadbolt on the front door and aluminium sliders onto the patio. Around Tzaneen and Haenertsburg, misty wet winters swell timber doors, so a lock that catches badly may need its strike moved rather than replacing. Farm sheds near Letsitele and Mooketsi use keyed alike padlocks so one key opens every store.
