Kimberley notes on security & access
Provincial departments, courts and the legislature need posts that stop vehicles at entrances, usually rated designs installed to the maker's drawing. Banks and shopping centres in the CBD and along the N12 ask for posts after ram raids. Complexes in Hadison Park and Royldene use boom gates with a backup battery. Retractable posts are possible, but ask who will service them this far from Gauteng.
Kimberley: the properties, the ground and the installers
Diamond history, government offices and long distances define Kimberley. As the Northern Cape capital, it has provincial buildings, courts, a newer university campus and hospitals that need perimeter posts and controlled parking. The old mining town centre and streets around the historic mine area suit decorative and heritage style posts, while the shopping centres and filling stations on the N12 and the roads toward Barkly West and Ritchie deal with parking and break-ins. Galeshewe and Roodepan have busy taxi routes and schools that ask for speed humps. Bloemfontein is about 175 km away, and Johannesburg is near 470 km, so heavy precast often comes from the few local yards.
Who asks for retractable bollards around Kimberley, most often first:
- Schools, hospitals and campuses: hospital and campus roads with emergency access that must open fast
- Shops, malls and petrol stations: delivery lanes behind a mall that open for trucks and close after hours
- Offices, hotels and car parks: secure executive parking and office park lanes opened by access card
