What to know locally in Potchefstroom

Student housing and complexes in the areas around campus use boom gates, access cards and removable posts at the delivery gate. Shops and takeaways near campus ask for posts where cars mount the pavement to park. The military base and government offices need rated perimeter posts from specialist suppliers. Homeowners in Baillie Park often add a pair of driveway posts to stop parking across the gate during sports weekends.

Potchefstroom: the properties, the ground and the installers

Students, oak trees and old streets give Potchefstroom a different set of problems from the mining towns nearby. A large university campus, schools, colleges and student housing mean thousands of pedestrians crossing roads near Tom Street and the campus edges, so speed humps, chain and post barriers, and posts that keep cars off lawns and footpaths are common requests. The older town centre has heritage buildings where decorative posts suit better than yellow steel. A military base, agricultural research and a light industrial area add access control jobs. Baillie Park and Van der Hoff Park have complexes with boom gates. Johannesburg is about 120 km up the N12 for specialist units.

Who asks for security bollards around Potchefstroom, 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
