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
- Low-profile floor track options to reduce trip hazards
- Can be combined with a letterbox gap or pet clearance where needed
- Powder-coated finishes to match door frames
- Retractable or hinged designs to suit the space beside the door
- Locks operable from inside, outside or both
- Additional shoot bolts into the floor and head for wider gates

Norfolk is known for flint and brick cottages, Norwich's medieval lanes and listed buildings, and seaside towns with seasonal properties.
Typical places for this kind of grille include:
- Flat entrance doors onto communal areas
- Back and side doors of houses
- Shop back doors and fire exits (with the right arrangements)
- Glazed kitchen and utility doors
Things to decide before you order
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.
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.
Rules that apply 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 Great Yarmouth: questions
Can you survey in Great Yarmouth and nearby towns?
Yes. Surveys in Great Yarmouth, Lowestoft, Norwich and elsewhere in Norfolk are booked around installer availability.
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.
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.
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.
