15 Benefits and Advantages of a KiNG TRELLIS Expandable Security Gate
You home is where you should feel most at ease, and where your loved ones are protected. But staying secure shouldn’t mean sacrificing comfort or style. That’s why expandable security gates, like those from market-leading KiNG TRELLIS, offer the ideal balance — strong, reliable protection when you need it, and neatly out of the way when you don’t. Below are some of the key reasons why they’re one of the smartest security solutions available today.
Read about the benefits and advantages of our KiNG TRELLIS expandable security gates supplied and installed by The TRELLIS Guys.

Our retractable gates slide neatly out of sight when not in use, keeping your space open, airy, and uncluttered. Unlike bulky swing gates, our slimline tracks and folding design preserve floor space – ideal for doors, hallways, patios, and staircases.
2. Built to Last – Strong, Smart, Secure
At the heart of every installation from The TRELLIS Guys is the trusted KiNG TRELLIS system – renowned for its robust build and sleek design. Engineered for strength, built for beauty, and trusted across South Africa, these expandable gates are made from premium materials and expert craftsmanship to withstand the test of time and deter even the most determined intruder. Safety never looked so good.

The KiNG TRELLIS Story
Why the KiNG TRELLIS Security Gate is SO STRONG!
KiNG Brands started out largely as a racking and shelving manufacturer and installer. In 2006 they had purchased a very expensive top-of-the-range trellis security gate to improve the security and safeguard the contents of their offices.
That done, the KiNG Brands offices were burgled within a matter of two weeks, with this very expensive top-of-the-range security gate easily broken open, and their new computers, printers, and other expensive office equipment, along with information that was on the computers, was stolen.
Not wanting a repeat of this expensive and disruptive break-in, the founders, two brothers, both of whom who are engineers, decided to design and build a 'burglar-proof' trellis-style security gate!
They named the gate the KiNG TRELLIS.
The burglary was in 2006. Today, the KiNG Brands offices has not been broken into again!
KiNG TRELLIS expandable security gates continue to protect homes and business around the country.
