Aluminium shopfronts Klerksdorp: weather and glass
Klerksdorp has hot summers with afternoon thunderstorms, cold dry winters with frost, and dust blowing off the surrounding farmland and mine dumps in the dry months.
Heat, cold and dust reward a well-sealed frontage: the gaskets in an aluminium frame keep out dust and draughts, a door that closes behind customers keeps an air-conditioned or heated shop comfortable, and laminated safety glass holds together if a summer hailstorm cracks a pane.
Every frontage is glazed in safety glass, as SANS 10400-N requires at entrances and low level; the standard is published by the SABS. See aluminium shopfront glass for every glass option.
Aluminium shopfronts Klerksdorp: entrance doors
- Automatic sliding doors: the MC-125 automatic sliding door system, R27 590 excluding VAT, with sensors, remotes, battery backup and an electric lock, for openings 1 600 to 6 000 mm wide.
- Automatic swing doors: the MCW-100 automatic swing door operator, from R15 900 excluding VAT, for a hinged door that must stay.
- Pivot doors: aluminium pivot doors from R10 494 excluding VAT, or frameless glass pivot doors quoted per project.
- Hinged doors: single and double aluminium hinged doors, included in the shopfront area.
MC Automations services automatic doors every six months, and the operator carries a 24-month warranty. In Klerksdorp, see our page on automatic entrance doors Klerksdorp for servicing and call-outs.

Businesses we build for in Klerksdorp
Klerksdorp grew on gold mining and farming, and both still shape its businesses: mining and engineering offices, agricultural co-operatives and suppliers, car dealerships, medical rooms and pharmacies, and retail in Matlosana Mall and the CBD.
Each type of business has its own guide: retail shopfronts, clinic shopfronts, commercial shopfronts for restaurants and showrooms, office entrance doors, petrol station shopfronts and frameless shopfronts. Inside the building we also install glass partition walls and frameless glass doors.
Choosing aluminium shopfronts Klerksdorp: a quick checklist
- Heat, frost and dust: Sealed frames for a dry climate.
- Hail-safe glass: Laminated panes hold together if cracked.
- Mining and farming: Hard-wearing offices and showrooms.
- Keep the cool in: Automatic doors close behind customers.
- Any colour, one price: Match the brand or the building.
- Measured and installed: By MC Automations, on site in Klerksdorp.
Run through the list before you price the frontage. Most of the cost and almost all of the problems on a shopfront come from three decisions made early: the type of entrance door, the glass, and getting the opening measured properly. Settle those and aluminium shopfronts Klerksdorp customers order are quick to approve, make and install.
Looking after the frontage
Aluminium needs little care, but a little care keeps it looking new. Wash the frames with mild soapy water and the glass with an ordinary glass cleaner; avoid abrasive pads and strong solvents on the powder coat. Keep the drainage slots at the bottom of the frame clear so rain can run out, and keep the floor track of an automatic door free of grit. Check the door seals and the lock once a year, and book the six-monthly service on any automatic door, so small adjustments are made before they become call-outs.
