Locks and keys in Mahikeng
As the provincial capital, Mahikeng has a large share of government offices, schools, clinics and a university campus, and these bring work on master key systems, access control and door closers on public buildings. Homes in Mmabatho, Riviera Park and Golf View mostly need sturdy outside locks, burglar gates and garage locks, while Montshiwa and Lomanyaneng ask for strong doors and padlocks. Cattle farms toward Zeerust and Ottoshoop need gate locks, store padlocks and gun safes. Locksmiths are based in town, but specialised parts and access control equipment sometimes come from further afield, so lead times can be longer. Summers are hot and dusty, which dries out gate locks and drains smart lock batteries faster.
