What is the price of door security gates in Hull?
As a guide, door security gates in Hull 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.
Choices you can make
- Additional shoot bolts into the floor and head for wider gates
- Can be combined with a letterbox gap or pet clearance where needed
- Locks operable from inside, outside or both
- Retractable or hinged designs to suit the space beside the door
- Low-profile floor track options to reduce trip hazards
- Suitable for timber, uPVC, composite and aluminium doors
Fitting in Hull and nearby
Surveys in Hull (HU1) are booked around installer availability, as they are in nearby Beverley (8 miles) and Grimsby (16 miles).
The East Riding includes Hull's dense Victorian terraces and docklands, the Georgian centre of Beverley, and coastal towns such as Bridlington.
This type of grille suits:
- Back and side doors of houses
- Shop back doors and fire exits (with the right arrangements)
- Office side entrances
- Flat entrance doors onto communal areas
Questions we will ask at the survey
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.
Retractable or hinged
Retractable gates need a parking space beside the door for the stack; hinged gates need clear swing space.
Planning and safety 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.

Door security gates in Hull: questions
Can you survey in Hull and nearby towns?
Yes. Surveys in Hull, Beverley, Grimsby and elsewhere in East Riding of Yorkshire 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.
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.
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.
