Alberton notes on installation & traffic control

On the Klipriviersberg ridge rock is often right under the topsoil, so footings are core drilled and set with resin, and retractable pits may need rock breaking. In the lower suburbs clay is the issue. Truck traffic in Alrode means frequent repairs to bent posts and guardrail, and works on the R59 and N3 call for jersey barriers and cones.

Alberton: the properties, the ground and the installers

Two very different Albertons ask for bollards. Alrode, one of the bigger heavy industrial areas south of Johannesburg, is full of steel works, foundries, chemical plants and truck depots off the R59 and Heidelberg Road, and it buys heavy posts, guardrail and boom gates by the dozen. Up on the Klipriviersberg ridge, Meyersdal's security estates and large homes want decorative and lit bollards, retractable posts at gates and neat speed humps. In between, Brackenhurst, Brackendowns and Randhart have family homes and complexes, while New Redruth's shopping streets and Thokoza's busy routes need sidewalk protection. Rock is shallow on the ridge, and Alrode's own fabricators make supply quick.

Typical boom gates requests in the area come from:

  • Warehouses, factories and depots: a depot or factory gate controlling trucks in and out of the yard
  • Estates, complexes and body corporates: entry and exit booms at the gatehouse with remotes, intercom and backup
  • Homeowners: a manual boom across a long private driveway or a smallholding entrance
