Things to decide before you order
Permission
In a block of flats, the building owner or managing agent usually needs to agree, and the gate must not compromise the building's fire strategy.
Post
Leave a letterbox clearance or fit a separate post box.
Rules that apply in England
Grilles in rented homes
Landlords in England must keep rented homes free from serious hazards under the Housing Health and Safety Rating System, which includes fire. A grille that stops a tenant using an escape window can create a hazard, so grilles in rented homes should have keyless internal releases.
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.

Front door security gates in Hampshire: questions
Which towns in Hampshire do you cover?
We can arrange work anywhere in Hampshire, including Southampton, Portsmouth, Basingstoke, Gosport and Waterlooville, and in other towns across the area.
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.
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.
