A door security gate is a steel grille fitted across a doorway, either as a retractable concertina gate or a hinged gate on its own frame. Locked, it holds the opening even if the door itself is forced or its glass is broken.

Fitting in Aylesbury and nearby

Surveys in Aylesbury (HP19) are booked around installer availability. We also cover nearby Leighton Buzzard (10 miles), Berkhamsted (11 miles) and Chesham (12 miles).

Buckinghamshire combines Milton Keynes' modern estates and grid-road business units with older market towns such as Aylesbury, Amersham and High Wycombe.

Typical places for this kind of grille include:

Glazed kitchen and utility doors
Office side entrances
Back and side doors of houses
Flat entrance doors onto communal areas

Things to decide before you order

Floor track

A full track gives the most rigid gate. If the doorway is a busy route or has level access, ask for a low-profile or recessed track.

Fire exits

On business premises a gate across an exit must not obstruct escape while anyone is inside. We discuss how it will be managed before recommending one.

Rules that apply in England

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.

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.

Door security gates in Aylesbury: questions

Do you cover Leighton Buzzard as well as Aylesbury?

Yes. As well as Aylesbury, we can arrange surveys in nearby Leighton Buzzard, Berkhamsted and Chesham, and elsewhere in Buckinghamshire.

Can you fit a gate to a flat entrance door?

Yes, subject to the building owner's permission and any fire strategy for the block, as flat entrance doors in shared buildings often have a fire safety role.

Can a security gate go behind a fire exit door?

Only if it does not obstruct escape while the building is occupied. That normally means it is unlocked and parked open during opening hours and locked only when the premises are empty.

Is a security gate better inside or outside the door?

Inside is usual for back doors because the gate is protected and the door still seals against the weather. Outside works for recessed doorways or where the door opens inwards and would hit the gate.
