Fitting in Nottingham and nearby
Surveys in Nottingham (NG1) are booked around installer availability, as they are in nearby West Bridgford (2 miles) and Arnold (3 miles).
Nottinghamshire mixes Nottingham's Victorian terraces and Lace Market warehouses with former mining towns and their high streets.
Typical places for this kind of grille include:
- Office side entrances
- Glazed kitchen and utility doors
- Flat entrance doors onto communal areas
- Back and side doors of houses
Things to decide before you order
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.
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.
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 Nottingham: questions
Can you survey in Nottingham and nearby towns?
Yes. Surveys in Nottingham, West Bridgford, Arnold and elsewhere in Nottinghamshire are booked around installer availability.
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.
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.
