What is the price of bi-folding security gates in Lincoln?
Most bi-folding security gates in Lincoln fall within £954 to £2,634 including VAT (£795 to £2,195 plus VAT) per opening for supply and fitting. We confirm a fixed price in writing after a free survey, before anything is ordered.
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.

- Mesh or solid infill panels on request
- Lock box on the leading leaf plus shoot bolts
- Rigid hinged leaves of vertical bars

Fitting in Lincoln and nearby
Surveys in Lincoln (LN1) are booked around installer availability, as they are in nearby Gainsborough (14 miles) and Newark-on-Trent (16 miles).
Lincolnshire combines the historic hilltop core of Lincoln with Grimsby and Scunthorpe's industrial terraces and many small market and coastal towns.
This type of grille suits:
- Restaurant and bar frontages
- Loading doors and goods-in
- Garden room and orangery 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.
Look
Bi-folds read as a screen rather than a lattice, which suits modern interiors.
Planning and safety in England
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.
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.

Bi-folding security gates in Lincoln: questions
Can you survey in Lincoln and nearby towns?
Yes. Surveys in Lincoln, Gainsborough, Newark-on-Trent and elsewhere in Lincolnshire are booked around installer availability.
How wide can a bi-fold gate be?
From a single doorway up to several metres, split to fold both ways on wider openings.
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.
