Things to decide before you order

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.

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

England

Grilles in rented homes

Landlords in England must keep rented homes free from serious hazards under the Housing Health and Safety Rating System, which includes fire. A grille that stops a tenant using an escape window can create a hazard, so grilles in rented homes should have keyless internal releases.

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 Tyldesley: questions

Do you cover Atherton as well as Tyldesley?

Yes. As well as Tyldesley, we can arrange surveys in nearby Atherton, Leigh and Walkden, and elsewhere in Greater Manchester.

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.

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.
