Fitting in Chesterfield and nearby

Chesterfield is about 23 miles from Derby, the main centre for Derbyshire. We can survey and fit across the S40 district and in nearby places such as Staveley and Dronfield.

Derbyshire has gritstone cottages in the Peak District, Victorian terraces in Derby and Chesterfield, and retail parades in its former mining towns.

This type of grille suits:

Glazed kitchen and utility doors
Flat entrance doors onto communal areas
Office side entrances
Shop back doors and fire exits (with the right arrangements)

Questions we will ask at the survey

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.

Retractable or hinged

Retractable gates need a parking space beside the door for the stack; hinged gates need clear swing space.

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 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.

Door security gates in Chesterfield: questions

Do you cover Staveley as well as Chesterfield?

Yes. As well as Chesterfield, we can arrange surveys in nearby Staveley, Dronfield and Sheffield, and elsewhere in Derbyshire.

Will a gate stop the door from opening?

No. The gate is measured so the door can open and close normally with the gate folded back or swung open.

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.

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.
