Door security gates in Hereford

What is the price of door security gates in Hereford?

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.

What you can specify

Powder-coated finishes to match door frames
Retractable or hinged designs to suit the space beside the door
Additional shoot bolts into the floor and head for wider gates
Locks operable from inside, outside or both
Suitable for timber, uPVC, composite and aluminium doors
Steel frames fixed into masonry with anti-tamper fixings

Fitting in Hereford and nearby

We can arrange door security gates across Hereford, the main centre for Herefordshire, and in nearby towns including Ross-on-Wye, Leominster and Malvern.

Herefordshire is largely rural, with black-and-white timber-framed buildings, stone farmhouses and small market-town high streets such as Hereford and Leominster.

This type of grille suits:

Flat entrance doors onto communal areas
Office side entrances
Back and side doors of houses
Glazed kitchen and utility doors

Questions we will ask at the survey

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.

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.

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.

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.

Door security gates in Hereford: questions

Which areas near Hereford do you cover?

We can arrange work in Hereford and in nearby Ross-on-Wye (11 miles), Leominster (12 miles) and Malvern (17 miles). Dates depend on installer availability.

Can a security gate go behind a fire exit door?

Only if it does not obstruct escape while the building is occupied. That normally means it is unlocked and parked open during opening hours and locked only when the premises are empty.

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.
