Door security gates in Paignton

What is the price of door security gates in Paignton?

As a guide, door security gates in Paignton cost £714 to £1,554 including VAT (£595 to £1,295 plus VAT) per door, supplied and fitted. The exact figure depends on size, type, finish and locking, and is confirmed in writing after the free survey.

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.

This type of grille suits:

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

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.

Which side you lock from

A gate that is only locked from inside suits most homes. If the door is your way out at night, choose a gate that also locks from outside.

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.

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.

Door security gates in Paignton: questions

Can you survey in Paignton and nearby towns?

Yes. Surveys in Paignton, Torquay, Newton Abbot and elsewhere in Devon are booked around installer availability.

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.

How do I lock a door gate?

With a key-operated lock box on the closing edge, plus shoot bolts on wider gates. Thumb-turn and quick-release options are available on the inside face.

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.
