Germiston notes on installation & traffic control
Old industrial floors in Germiston are often thin or patched, so a slab check before core drilling saves cracked concrete. Outside, old fill may need a deeper footing. Repairs to bent posts and damaged guardrail are frequent because of the truck traffic. Industrial parks order boom gates and speed humps, and contractors on the N3 and R21 hire jersey barriers and cones.
Who protects what in Germiston
Germiston has long been a rail and industry town, and the trucks show it. Wadeville, Isando, Knights and Driehoek hold foundries, steel merchants, fabricators, precast works and logistics yards, which makes this one of the easiest places in Gauteng to source steel posts and guardrail quickly. It also means a lot of demand: trucks turning into tight gates, forklifts in old warehouses and gas lines that need protecting. The CBD and taxi ranks near the station need sidewalk posts, Primrose and Lambton homes want driveway posts, and Bedfordview, on its ridge above the N3 and R24, asks for neat stainless and lit bollards at offices, clinics and security complexes. Few buyers here are far from a yard.
Typical guardrails requests in the area come from:
- Warehouses, factories and depots: rails in a loading area protecting pipes, tanks and walls from trucks
- Homeowners: a short rail along a steep driveway above a drop on a smallholding
- Offices, hotels and car parks: a guardrail protecting a building wall from cars on a sloping car park
