What is the price of door security gates in Coventry?

Budget £714 to £1,554 including VAT (£595 to £1,295 plus VAT) per door for door security gates in Coventry, supplied and fitted. Size, number of leaves, colour and access all move the price, which is fixed in writing after the survey.

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.

Fitting in Coventry and nearby

We arrange surveys and fitting in Coventry and across the CV1 postcode district, as well as in nearby Kenilworth (5 miles) and Bedworth (5 miles). Dates depend on installer availability.

The West Midlands is dominated by red-brick terraces and interwar semis, with dense high streets and a large stock of industrial and trade units.

This type of grille suits:

Back and side doors of houses
Office side entrances
Shop back doors and fire exits (with the right arrangements)
Glazed kitchen and utility doors

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.

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.

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 Coventry: questions

Do you cover Kenilworth as well as Coventry?

Yes. As well as Coventry, we can arrange surveys in nearby Kenilworth, Bedworth and Nuneaton, and elsewhere in West Midlands.

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.

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.

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.
