Limpopo notes on door locks & handles
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.
Locks and keys in Limpopo
