- Black, anthracite and RAL colours
- Neat folded stack for receptions and showrooms
- Fold to one or both sides
- Mesh or solid infill panels on request
- Top-hung on a heavy track with bottom guides

Northumberland is largely rural, with stone-built market towns such as Hexham and Alnwick and terraced former mining towns in the south-east.
Typical places for this kind of grille include:
- Office receptions and showrooms
- Restaurant and bar frontages
- Wide internal openings
- Loading doors and goods-in
Things to decide before you order
Infill
Add mesh or solid panels where you want to stop reach-through or hide the area behind.
Look
Bi-folds read as a screen rather than a lattice, which suits modern interiors.
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.
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.

Bi-folding security gates in Berwick-upon-Tweed: questions
Do you cover Alnwick as well as Berwick-upon-Tweed?
Yes. As well as Berwick-upon-Tweed, we can arrange work in nearby Alnwick and elsewhere in Northumberland.
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.
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.
