A front door security gate is a steel gate fitted in front of or behind a front or flat entrance door. It adds a second locked barrier that has to be defeated after the door, and most designs can be locked from outside when you leave as well as from inside at night.
Choices you can make
- Steel frame fixed into the opening
- Clearances for door closers and spy-holes
- Powder-coated finishes
- Low thresholds for level access
- Lockable from outside with a key and from inside with a thumb-turn or key
- Hinged or retractable designs

Things to decide before you order
Appearance

Escape
Choose a gate that opens quickly from inside without hunting for a key.
Rules that apply in England
External grilles and planning
External grilles and shutters on shops and other commercial buildings normally need planning permission from the local council because they change the building's appearance. Many councils' shopfront guides favour internal, open-lattice grilles, particularly in conservation areas.
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.

Front door security gates in Kilburn: questions
Can you survey in Kilburn and nearby towns?
Yes. Surveys in Kilburn, Cricklewood, Chalk Farm and elsewhere in Greater London are booked around installer availability.
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.
Will I still get post?
We can leave a letterbox clearance in the gate or suggest a wall-mounted post box.
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.
