Homes and weather in Kathu
Kathu is a mining town in the Kalahari edge, surrounded by iron ore and manganese operations. Homes are mostly newer face-brick houses, complexes, mine housing and rented units, with Sesheng and Dingleton nearby. Summers are fiercely hot, and the dry red sand and dust get into everything, wearing gate tracks, motors, roller doors and air conditioners. Rare but heavy thunderstorms test roofs and gutters, while cold winter nights can affect exposed plumbing. Landlords and letting agents need regular repairs, painting and turnaround work. Residents also ask for paving, carports, shade structures, fencing and security gates. Many materials come from local merchants, with bulk items delivered from Kuruman, Kimberley or Gauteng.
Typical burglar bars requests in the area come from:
- Suburban houses: fitting bars and security gates to windows and doors on freestanding homes
- Townhouses and security estates: fitting bars that follow complex style rules, with approval from the body corporate or HOA
- Flats and sectional-title blocks: fitting clear bars and security gates on ground-floor flats and balcony doors, subject to scheme rules
- Township homes and extensions: fitting steel bars and security gates to windows and doors on small houses and backyard rooms
- Shops, offices and rentals: fitting bars and security gates on shop fronts, offices and storerooms
- Farms and smallholdings: fitting strong bars and gates on farmhouses and outbuildings far from help
