Fitting in Harwich and nearby

Harwich is about 37 miles from Southend-on-Sea, the main centre for Essex. We can survey and fit across the CO12 district and in nearby places such as Felixstowe and Ipswich.

Essex ranges from Victorian terraces in Southend and Colchester to new towns such as Harlow and Basildon and large commuter estates near London.

Typical places for this kind of grille include:

Office side entrances
Glazed kitchen and utility doors
Shop back doors and fire exits (with the right arrangements)
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.

Retractable or hinged

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

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.

Door security gates in Harwich: questions

Can you survey in Harwich and nearby towns?

Yes. Surveys in Harwich, Felixstowe, Ipswich and elsewhere in Essex are booked around installer availability.

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.

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.

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.
