What is the price of bi-folding security gates in Peterborough?

A bi-folding security gate is made of hinged leaves of vertical bars that fold against each other as they slide along a top track. It covers wide openings like a retractable grille but folds into fewer, flatter panels with no scissor lattice.
What you can specify
- Rigid hinged leaves of vertical bars
- Neat folded stack for receptions and showrooms
- Fold to one or both sides
- Black, anthracite and RAL colours
- Lock box on the leading leaf plus shoot bolts
- Top-hung on a heavy track with bottom guides
Fitting in Peterborough and nearby
We arrange surveys and fitting across Peterborough and the PE1 postcode district, and in nearby Stamford (11 miles), March (14 miles) and Spalding.
Cambridgeshire includes listed college-town streets in Cambridge, the Victorian terraces and newer estates of Peterborough, and fenland market towns.
This type of grille suits:
- Restaurant and bar frontages
- Loading doors and goods-in
- Wide internal openings
- Office receptions and showrooms
Questions we will ask at the survey
Folded stack size
Leaves stack flatter than a lattice but each leaf has a fixed width, so the stack is planned with the room layout.
Floor guide
A bottom guide keeps the leaves aligned. Recessed guides keep the floor flush.
Planning and safety in England
Listed buildings and conservation areas
Listed buildings need listed building consent for works that affect their character, which can include internal grilles and their fixings. In conservation areas, councils look closely at anything fitted to the outside. We recommend speaking to the council's conservation officer before ordering.
Grilles across exits in business premises
In workplaces and other non-domestic premises, including the common parts of blocks of flats and HMOs, the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 makes the responsible person keep escape routes and emergency exits available and easy to open while people are present. A grille across an exit should be unlocked and parked open whenever the building is occupied, and covered in the fire risk assessment.
