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.
Choices you can make
- Low-profile floor track options to reduce trip hazards
- Can be combined with a letterbox gap or pet clearance where needed
- Retractable or hinged designs to suit the space beside the door
- Steel frames fixed into masonry with anti-tamper fixings
- Additional shoot bolts into the floor and head for wider gates
- Powder-coated finishes to match door frames

Merseyside has Liverpool's Georgian quarter and Victorian terraces, the Wirral's suburbs, and large high-street and dockside commercial areas.
This type of grille suits:
- Shop back doors and fire exits (with the right arrangements)
- Flat entrance doors onto communal areas
- Glazed kitchen and utility doors
- Back and side doors of houses
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.
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.
Planning and safety 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 Kirkby: questions
Do you cover Maghull as well as Kirkby?
Yes. As well as Kirkby, we can arrange surveys in nearby Maghull, Litherland and Prescot, and elsewhere in Merseyside.
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.
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.
