Things to decide before you order
Floor guide
A bottom guide keeps the leaves aligned. Recessed guides keep the floor flush.
Infill
Add mesh or solid panels where you want to stop reach-through or hide the area behind.
Rules that apply in England
Grilles inside the glass
A grille fitted inside the glass does not normally need planning permission, because it does not materially change how the building looks from outside. If the building is listed, listed building consent may still be needed.
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.

Bi-folding security gates in Derbyshire: questions
Which towns in Derbyshire do you cover?
We can arrange work anywhere in Derbyshire, including Derby, Chesterfield, Long Eaton, Ilkeston and Swadlincote, and in other towns across the area.
Can a bi-fold gate go outside?
Yes, with galvanised steel and an external-grade track, though most are fitted inside.
What is the difference between a bi-fold gate and a retractable grille?
A retractable grille uses a scissor lattice that concertinas; a bi-fold gate uses rigid hinged leaves that fold flat. Bi-folds look more architectural; retractables fold into a narrower stack.
Can bi-fold gates be powder-coated to match our frames?
Yes, in most RAL colours.
