Security & access in East London: local notes
Government buildings in Bhisho and offices in the CBD ask about security posts at entrances and drop-off points, so ask whether a product is crash rated or simply heavy. Factories supplying the car plant need forklift protection and secure truck gates. Complexes in Beacon Bay and Gonubie use boom gates and speed humps, and fold-down posts help residents keep reserved bays clear.
East London: the properties, the ground and the installers
East London is built around a river port and a car plant, and both shape its bollard work. The industrial development zone and the older industrial areas around Wilsonia hold component suppliers, warehouses and transport depots that need racking protection, guardrails and gate posts. Along the Esplanade and in Quigney, beachfront parking and promenades face salt and sand, while Oxford Street and the CBD carry busy sidewalks, taxi ranks and shopfronts. Vincent and Beacon Bay have office parks, schools and complexes, and Mdantsane, one of the larger townships in the country, has its own taxi ranks and public facilities. Bhisho and Qonce, inland along the N6, add government buildings and less salt.
