Letterbox clearance where needed

Front door security gates in Comber: questions

Do you cover Newtownards as well as Comber?

Yes. As well as Comber, we can arrange surveys in nearby Newtownards, Holywood and Belfast, and elsewhere in County Down.

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.

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.

Can the gate be locked from outside?

Yes. Front door gates normally lock with a key from outside and a thumb-turn or key from inside.
