Gaborone · Phakalane · Greater Gaborone
Gates, fencing & aluminium for Gaborone homes and businesses.
Our workshop is in Rasoko Ward, Gabane — about 15 km west of the city — so a free site measure anywhere in Gaborone, from Gaborone West and Broadhurst to the CBD and Phakalane, is a normal day’s work for us. Send a photo on WhatsApp and we reply with a quote within 4 business hours.
Three kinds of Gaborone job — and what each one needs
Upgrading an older property. Many established houses still have a manual swing gate hung on pillars built years ago. Converting to a sliding gate usually means a new level foundation for the track and enough straight wall beside the opening for the gate to run back into. We check both on the measure, and if a new motor on the existing gate is the better-value fix, we will say so.
Estates, complexes and townhouses. In security estates and complexes — common in Phakalane and the newer parts of the city — the body corporate or HOA often sets colours, heights or gate styles. Send us the guidelines with your photos; we fabricate to them and can send a sketch for approval before any steel is cut.
Shops, offices and yards. Premises in the CBD and in industrial areas such as Gaborone West and Broadhurst tend to need heavier sliding gates, palisade, steel security gates over glass doors and aluminium shopfronts. We quote these from drawings or a BOQ — see our commercial page.

Gaborone questions, answered
What Gaborone homeowners and businesses usually ask before booking a measure.
Do you charge to come out to Gaborone for a measure?
No. Site measurements are free across Greater Gaborone — the city itself, Phakalane, Tlokweng, Mogoditshane and the villages around Gabane.
Can you work to our estate or body-corporate guidelines?
Yes. Send the rules along with your photos. We match colour, height and infill style, and can send a sketch for approval before fabrication starts.
Can you automate the gate I already have?
Often, yes — if the gate runs true and the frame is sound. We check the track, wheels or hinges and the gate’s weight, then fit a suitable Centurion or equivalent motor with battery backup. If the gate is out of square, we will tell you whether repairing or replacing it is better value.
Do you do shopfronts and business premises in town?
Yes — aluminium shopfronts and doors, steel security gates, palisade fencing and heavy sliding yard gates. We can quote from drawings or a BOQ.
