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
- Top-hung on a heavy track with bottom guides
- Black, anthracite and RAL colours
- Rigid hinged leaves of vertical bars
- Lock box on the leading leaf plus shoot bolts
- Fold to one or both sides
- Suits openings from a single door width to several metres

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 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.

Yes, with galvanised steel and an external-grade track, though most are fitted inside.
How wide can a bi-fold gate be?
From a single doorway up to several metres, split to fold both ways on wider openings.
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.
