Security & access in Rustenburg: local notes

Fast-growing complexes and estates in Cashan, Waterkloof East and along the Kroondal road rely on boom gates, spikes and removable posts at visitor lanes. Retail centres and filling stations along the main roads ask for anti-ram posts in front of shop glass. Mine offices and smelters need posts guarding gatehouses and control rooms. Warehouse safety posts protect racking in the stores that supply the shafts and contractor workshops.

Sites and streets in Rustenburg

Platinum mining has made Rustenburg a town of shafts, smelters, contractor yards and fast-growing housing, and the bollard requests follow that pattern. Mines and processing plants around Marikana, Kroondal and Mooinooi need steel posts at workshops, fuel points and pedestrian routes, while the N4 Platinum Highway and the roads to Pilanesberg carry heavy trucks and tour coaches. The CBD, Cashan and Safari Gardens have shopping centres, filling stations and offices dealing with smash and grabs and careless parking. The black turf clay that covers much of the valley is the main technical issue, because it swells when wet and cracks when dry. Pretoria is about 110 km away for rated or specialist units.

  • Shops, malls and petrol stations: delivery lanes behind a mall that open for trucks and close after hours
