What is the price of door security gates in Sheffield?
Our guide range for door security gates in Sheffield is £714 to £1,554 including VAT (£595 to £1,295 plus VAT) per door, including fitting. The survey is free for new installations and your fixed price follows in writing.
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
- Steel frames fixed into masonry with anti-tamper fixings
- 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
- Additional shoot bolts into the floor and head for wider gates
Fitting in Sheffield and nearby
Surveys in Sheffield (S1) are booked around installer availability, as they are in nearby Rotherham (6 miles) and Dronfield (6 miles).
South Yorkshire is dominated by brick and stone terraces in Sheffield, Doncaster, Rotherham and Barnsley, alongside large city-centre retail and commercial areas.
This type of grille suits:
- Flat entrance doors onto communal areas
- Back and side doors of houses
- Shop back doors and fire exits (with the right arrangements)
- Office side entrances
Questions we will ask at the survey
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.
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.
Planning and safety in England
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.
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.

Door security gates in Sheffield: questions
Can you survey in Sheffield and nearby towns?
Yes. Surveys in Sheffield, Rotherham, Dronfield and elsewhere in South Yorkshire are booked around installer availability.
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 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.
