Suburbs we cover here: Brackenfell, Bellville, Blackheath, Durbanville

Stikland is established industrial and distribution work — warehousing, engineering and transport yards along the N1 corridor.

What we see in Stikland

Cycle count decides the build. We rate the motor to the movements the door actually makes, fit heavier bearings and build a curtain that takes a knock without deforming. On a dispatch bay the difference between a properly rated door and a light one shows within eighteen months, and it shows as downtime rather than as anything visible.

Inland here means we spend nothing on marine protection and say so. What we do spend on is the parts that fail: bearings, the bottom rail, and the motor. We carry the common failures on the vehicle so a repair is one visit rather than two, because a bay standing idle costs more than the part ever will.

Getting on site in Stikland

Site access is good and there is room to work. The survey covers the reveal, the fixing substrate, the cycle count and what physically passes through the opening. On plant we plan installation and servicing around your shift pattern rather than ours, because a bay standing idle costs more than anything on our quote.

Motors, backup and load shedding

Industrial automation is rated with headroom rather than exactly to the cycle count, because a motor run permanently at its limit fails during your busiest week rather than your quietest. We fit heavier bearings, protect the control gear against the conditions in the bay, fit backup, and place the manual override for quick use under pressure by someone who did not watch it being installed.

Repairs on any make

We repair any make and we work to your downtime rather than our schedule. The common failures are bearings, motor gearboxes worked past their rating, and curtain damage from impact. Where a door has been hit we assess whether the curtain will run true again before quoting either way — a deformed slat set jams intermittently, and on a production bay that is worse than a clean failure.

What it costs

We quote from a measured survey and the survey is free anywhere in the metro. What moves the price is the size of the opening, the slat gauge the job actually needs, whether it is motorised, the corrosion specification your address genuinely requires, wind locks and bracing where the opening is exposed, and whether the reveal needs making good first. We itemise those rather than handing you one number, so you can see what you are paying for and take out anything you do not want. A rough width and height over the phone is enough for a ballpark; we confirm it on site before anything is built.

How soon we can be there

Breakdowns in Stikland are attended same-day wherever we can reach you, and our teams work the metro every day. A door that will not close is treated as urgent. For new work the survey is normally within a day or two of your call, manufacture takes a few working days because every curtain is built to your measurements at our own works, and installation is a morning for a single and most of a day for a double or a wide opening with automation.

Getting a quote in Stikland

Send us the opening width and height — and on older stock, the width at the top and at the bottom if you can get both — along with a photo of the opening from a few metres back. Tell us roughly how far you are from the sea while you are at it, because that decides the finish. From there we book the free measured survey in Stikland, confirm the sizes ourselves, and put a fixed price in writing with the corrosion specification itemised. Nothing is built until you have agreed that price.
