Fitting in Bishopbriggs and nearby

We arrange surveys and fitting in Bishopbriggs and across the G64 postcode district, as well as in nearby Glasgow (3 miles) and Bearsden (4 miles). Dates depend on installer availability.

Greater Glasgow is known for sandstone tenements with ground-floor shops, Victorian city-centre buildings and Inverclyde's riverside towns.

This type of grille suits:

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

Questions we will ask at the survey

Retractable or hinged

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

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.

Planning and safety in Scotland

Scotland

Grilles inside the glass

A grille fitted inside the glass does not normally need planning permission in Scotland, as it does not materially change the outside of the building. If the building is listed, listed building consent may still be needed.

Grilles in rented homes

Private landlords in Scotland must meet the repairing standard, which includes fire safety provisions. Grilles over windows a tenant may need for escape should open from inside without a key.

Door security gates in Bishopbriggs: questions

Can you survey in Bishopbriggs and nearby towns?

Yes. Surveys in Bishopbriggs, Glasgow, Bearsden and elsewhere in Glasgow and Clyde 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.

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.

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.
