Glass and glazing in Welkom
Welkom is a planned gold-mining town laid out in circular suburbs, and many uniform mine-era brick houses still have their original steel-framed windows. Owners replace cracked panes, move to aluminium and add burglar-resistant laminated glass. The central shopping area has many shopfronts that need toughened entrance doors and repairs. Flat Free State plains bring hard winter frost and fierce winds, and summer hail breaks glass. Declining mine activity has left some empty buildings that are vandalised, creating board-up and reglazing work. Local glaziers handle repairs, while toughened and laminated panes are ordered from Bloemfontein or Gauteng processors, with a delivery lead time.
Typical glass roofs and canopies requests in the area come from:
- Family homes: a glass canopy over the front door or a glass-roofed patio next to the braai
- Shops, restaurants and malls: a glass canopy over a shopfront or covered walkway that keeps shoppers dry
- Offices, clinics and schools: a glass canopy over an office entrance or a skylight above an atrium or reception
- Apartments and complexes: a glass canopy over a ground-floor patio or a skylight in a top-floor flat
- New builds and developments: overhead glass specified with the engineer before the roof structure and beams are built
- Security and golf estates: a laminated glass roof over a covered entertainment area or architectural entrance walkway
