What to know locally in Worcester
Cold stores and packhouses need racking and dock protection that handles forklifts working long shifts at harvest time. Fuel depots and truck stops on the N1 protect pump islands from long vehicles. Farms use boom gates and lockable removable posts at entrances to manage seasonal workers and trucks, and shops in the centre ask about smash and grab protection.
Who protects what in Worcester
Fruit, wine and freight keep Worcester busy. The town sits in the Breede River valley on the N1, about 110 km from Cape Town, and trucks carrying grapes, fruit and wine run between the farms of the Hex River valley, Rawsonville and Robertson and the cold stores and packhouses in town. Those sites need forklift protection, loading dock posts and guardrails, while truck stops and fuel depots along the N1 protect pump islands and tanks. The town centre has shopfronts, taxi ranks and schools with drop-off zones. Summers are very hot and winters cold, with frost and occasional snow on the mountains, but there is no salt air, so plain galvanised steel lasts.

- Warehouses, factories and depots: plant gates where trucks pass on a schedule and the lane stays closed otherwise
