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
- Fold to one or both sides
- Suits openings from a single door width to several metres
- Top-hung on a heavy track with bottom guides
- Lock box on the leading leaf plus shoot bolts
- Rigid hinged leaves of vertical bars
- Neat folded stack for receptions and showrooms

Things to decide before you order
Look
Bi-folds read as a screen rather than a lattice, which suits modern interiors.
Floor guide
A bottom guide keeps the leaves aligned. Recessed guides keep the floor flush.
Rules that apply in Northern Ireland
Grilles inside the glass
A grille fitted inside the glass does not normally need planning permission in Northern Ireland, as it does not materially change the outside of the building. If the building is listed, listed building consent may still be needed.
Listed buildings and conservation areas
Listed buildings in Northern Ireland need listed building consent for works affecting their character, with the council deciding and the Department for Communities' Historic Environment Division advising. Conservation areas bring extra scrutiny of external changes.
