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.
Choices you can make
- Fold to one or both sides
- Rigid hinged leaves of vertical bars
- Black, anthracite and RAL colours
- Top-hung on a heavy track with bottom guides
- Mesh or solid infill panels on request
- Lock box on the leading leaf plus shoot bolts

- Restaurant and bar frontages
- Office receptions and showrooms
- Garden room and orangery openings
- Loading doors and goods-in
Things to decide before you order
Floor guide
A bottom guide keeps the leaves aligned. Recessed guides keep the floor flush.
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.
Rules that apply in Scotland
Listed buildings and conservation areas
Listed buildings in Scotland need listed building consent for works affecting their character, decided by the council, with Historic Environment Scotland consulted on some cases. Conservation areas bring extra scrutiny of external changes. Check with the council before ordering.
Grilles inside the glass
A grille fitted inside the glass does not normally need planning permission in Scotland, as it does not materially change the outside of the building. If the building is listed, listed building consent may still be needed.

Bi-folding security gates in Bishopbriggs: questions
Can you survey in Bishopbriggs and nearby towns?
Yes. Surveys in Bishopbriggs, Glasgow, Bearsden and elsewhere in Glasgow and Clyde are booked around installer availability.
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.
Do bi-fold gates need a floor track?
They need some bottom guidance, which can be a recessed channel or discreet floor pins rather than a raised track.
