What the rules say in Northern Ireland

Northern Ireland

Grilles across exits in business premises

The Fire and Rescue Services (Northern Ireland) Order 2006 and the Fire Safety Regulations (Northern Ireland) 2010 make the appropriate person keep escape routes and exits available and easy to open while people are present. A grille across an exit should be open whenever the premises are occupied.

Listed buildings and conservation areas

Listed buildings in Northern Ireland need listed building consent for works affecting their character, with the council deciding and the Department for Communities' Historic Environment Division advising. Conservation areas bring extra scrutiny of external changes.

Front door security gates in Armagh: questions

Can you survey in Armagh and nearby towns?

Yes. Surveys in Armagh, Portadown, Dungannon and elsewhere in County Armagh are booked around installer availability.

Is a gate better than a stronger door?

They do different jobs. A certified door resists attack on its own; a gate adds a second barrier. Many people choose both.

Will I still get post?

We can leave a letterbox clearance in the gate or suggest a wall-mounted post box.

Does a front door gate need planning permission?

Gates in front of a house's front door can need planning permission, especially on listed buildings or in conservation areas. Gates behind the door usually do not.
