Ultralock™: Weldable Security Gate Locks, Designed in South Africa
Ultralock™ (often searched as Ultra Lock) designs and manufactures weldable security gate locks for South African homes, businesses and gate fabricators. Created in the late 1980s by Hennie van Niekerk of Ultrafab, every Ultralock™ is built from mild steel, welds straight into steel security gates and toolboxes, and has a keyless emergency locking push pin you can operate with one hand. Alongside the Ultra-Small Lock™ Mk1 and Mk2, we make lock boxes, replacement inner mechanisms, keyed-alike sets and sliding gate roller kits, as well as modular vertical storage solutions.
About Ultralock™
In the era of the late 80’s, the global landscape saw a rising demand for advanced home and commercial security solutions. Recognizing a growing gap in the market, especially with steel doors and burglar gates lacking robust security locks, Ultrafab’s visionary, Hennie van Niekerk, embarked on a mission to innovate.
The inception of the Ultralock™ range was not just a response to this demand but was also driven by a profound understanding of the critical need to fortify points of entry against intruders — the zones where individuals were most susceptible. Today, Ultralock™ stands as a testament to advanced security technology, providing unparalleled protection for homes and businesses.

Still the best security lock for your gate
Ultralock South Africa: Protecting your home and business
Burglar gates and steel doors are only as strong as the lock that holds them shut. Because an Ultralock™ is welded into the gate frame rather than bolted on, there are no external fixings to remove. The Ultra-Small Lock™ Mk2 uses a 12mm solid steel pin in a 2.5mm mild steel casing, and the Ultra-Multi Purpose Lock™ locks through a lug for extra resistance to crowbar wedging. For fabricators, a weld-in Ultralock™ can save up to an hour on making and installing a security gate.
What type of lock is best for a security gate?
For a steel security gate, a lock that is welded into the frame is harder to attack than a surface-mounted lock or a padlock on a chain. Look for a thick steel casing, a solid steel locking pin and a mechanism protected inside the housing. Ultralock™ locks add a keyless emergency push pin, so you can lock the gate with one hand in seconds, and keyed-alike sets let one key open every Ultralock™ on your property.
