What to know locally in Pinetown
Core drilling into an existing warehouse slab is the usual method here, so ask for the slab thickness and check for underfloor conduits before the drill goes in. On steep driveways, a footing on the downhill side needs care so runoff does not wash out the base. Speed humps on private factory roads are common and need no municipal approval, but work on Old Main Road or any public sidewalk usually needs a wayleave first.
Pinetown: the properties, the ground and the installers
Factories rather than beaches set the work in Pinetown. New Germany and Westmead are packed with manufacturers, warehouses and transport yards where forklifts and trucks share tight sites, so racking end protection, loading dock posts and guardrails along internal roads make up a large share of requests. The town sits on the hills above Durban, about 20 km from the sea, so salt is less of a worry than humidity, mist and runoff on steep sites. Kloof, Westville and Hillcrest bring the residential side: complexes with boom gates at the entrance and homeowners who want posts at the bottom of a sloping driveway. Old Main Road and the shopping strip in the centre carry their own sidewalk and shopfront jobs.
The requests we see from Pinetown usually come from:
- Warehouses, factories and depots: steel posts core drilled into a warehouse floor at racking ends and doors
- Homeowners: two posts core drilled into a paved driveway so nobody parks across the gate
- Shops, malls and petrol stations: impact posts core drilled into a shopfront forecourt after a ram raid scare
