How much should I budget for bi-folding security gates in Surrey?
As a guide, bi-folding security gates in Surrey cost £954 to £2,634 including VAT (£795 to £2,195 plus VAT) per opening, supplied and fitted. The exact figure depends on size, type, finish and locking, and is confirmed in writing after the free survey.
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
- Suits openings from a single door width to several metres
- Black, anthracite and RAL colours
- Lock box on the leading leaf plus shoot bolts
- Fold to one or both sides
- Rigid hinged leaves of vertical bars
- Neat folded stack for receptions and showrooms

What to think about first
Floor guide
A bottom guide keeps the leaves aligned. Recessed guides keep the floor flush.
Look
Bi-folds read as a screen rather than a lattice, which suits modern interiors.
Consents and safety: 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.
