Fitting in Swindon and nearby
We can arrange bi-folding security gates across Swindon, the main centre for Wiltshire, and in nearby towns including Calne, Cirencester and Chippenham.
Wiltshire mixes Swindon's Victorian railway terraces and modern estates with stone-built market towns such as Salisbury, Chippenham and Devizes.
Typical places for this kind of grille include:
- Wide internal openings
- Garden room and orangery openings
- Loading doors and goods-in
- Office receptions and showrooms
Things to decide before you order
Look
Bi-folds read as a screen rather than a lattice, which suits modern interiors.
Floor guide
A bottom guide keeps the leaves aligned. Recessed guides keep the floor flush.
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.
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.
