Door security gates in Epsom: what will it cost?
Most door security gates in Epsom fall within £714 to £1,554 including VAT (£595 to £1,295 plus VAT) per door for supply and fitting. We confirm a fixed price in writing after a free survey, before anything is ordered.
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
- Steel frames fixed into masonry with anti-tamper fixings
- Locks operable from inside, outside or both
- Suitable for timber, uPVC, composite and aluminium doors
- Additional shoot bolts into the floor and head for wider gates
- Can be combined with a letterbox gap or pet clearance where needed
- Retractable or hinged designs to suit the space beside the door

Getting the right door gate for your building
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.
What the rules say in England
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.
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 Epsom: questions
Can you survey in Epsom and nearby towns?
Yes. Surveys in Epsom, Ewell, Banstead and elsewhere in Surrey 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 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.
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.
