Fitting in Bordon and nearby
Bordon is about 28 miles from Southampton, the main centre for Hampshire. We can survey and fit across the GU35 district and in nearby places such as Farnham and Aldershot.
Hampshire runs from Portsmouth's dense Victorian terraces and Southampton's post-war centre to market towns such as Winchester with large conservation areas.
Typical places for this kind of grille include:
- Shop back doors and fire exits (with the right arrangements)
- Flat entrance doors onto communal areas
- Glazed kitchen and utility doors
- Office side entrances
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.
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.
Rules that apply in 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.
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.

Door security gates in Bordon: questions
Can you survey in Bordon and nearby towns?
Yes. Surveys in Bordon, Farnham, Aldershot and elsewhere in Hampshire 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.
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.
