Security & access in Potchefstroom: local notes

Student housing and complexes in the areas around campus use boom gates, access cards and removable posts at the delivery gate. Shops and takeaways near campus ask for posts where cars mount the pavement to park. The military base and government offices need rated perimeter posts from specialist suppliers. Homeowners in Baillie Park often add a pair of driveway posts to stop parking across the gate during sports weekends.

Sites and streets in Potchefstroom

Students, oak trees and old streets give Potchefstroom a different set of problems from the mining towns nearby. A large university campus, schools, colleges and student housing mean thousands of pedestrians crossing roads near Tom Street and the campus edges, so speed humps, chain and post barriers, and posts that keep cars off lawns and footpaths are common requests. The older town centre has heritage buildings where decorative posts suit better than yellow steel. A military base, agricultural research and a light industrial area add access control jobs. Baillie Park and Van der Hoff Park have complexes with boom gates. Johannesburg is about 120 km up the N12 for specialist units.

The requests we see from Potchefstroom usually come from:

  • Schools, hospitals and campuses: a school or clinic's staff driveway kept free of parents' cars
  • Estates, complexes and body corporates: posts at each unit's driveway in a complex where visitors park on the corners
  • Municipalities and public spaces: approvals for posts on verges and sidewalks outside private homes
