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.
What you can specify
- Suits openings from a single door width to several metres
- Black, anthracite and RAL colours
- Top-hung on a heavy track with bottom guides
- Rigid hinged leaves of vertical bars
- Mesh or solid infill panels on request
- Neat folded stack for receptions and showrooms

West Yorkshire is known for stone and brick terraces, back-to-backs in Leeds and Bradford, converted mills, and busy city and town centres.
Typical places for this kind of grille include:
- Restaurant and bar frontages
- Loading doors and goods-in
- Garden room and orangery openings
- Office receptions and showrooms
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
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 Bradford: questions
Do you cover Shipley as well as Bradford?
Yes. As well as Bradford, we can arrange surveys in nearby Shipley, Pudsey and Cleckheaton, and elsewhere in West Yorkshire.
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.
How wide can a bi-fold gate be?
From a single doorway up to several metres, split to fold both ways on wider openings.
