What to know locally in Kimberley
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 security bollards around Kimberley, most often first:
- Schools, hospitals and campuses: schools, clinics, courts and government buildings with a protected front edge
- Municipalities and public spaces: public squares and pedestrian streets closed to cars with fixed posts
- Shops, malls and petrol stations: shopfronts, ATMs and mall entrances shielded from smash and grabs and ram raids
