How much do front door security gates cost in Perth?
As a guide, front door security gates in Perth cost £834 to £1,794 including VAT (£695 to £1,495 plus VAT) per door, supplied and fitted. The exact figure depends on size, type, finish and locking, and is confirmed in writing after the free survey.
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
- Mesh infill to stop reach-through to the door lock
- Letterbox clearance where needed
- Low thresholds for level access
- Clearances for door closers and spy-holes
- Powder-coated finishes
- Hinged or retractable designs

- Recessed front doors
- Empty homes between occupants

- Flat entrance doors on landings and walkways
Things to decide before you order

Leave a letterbox clearance or fit a separate post box.
Appearance
A plain bar gate in a dark finish is less conspicuous than a heavy lattice.
Rules that apply in Scotland
Grilles in rented homes
Private landlords in Scotland must meet the repairing standard, which includes fire safety provisions. Grilles over windows a tenant may need for escape should open from inside without a key.
Listed buildings and conservation areas
Listed buildings in Scotland need listed building consent for works affecting their character, decided by the council, with Historic Environment Scotland consulted on some cases. Conservation areas bring extra scrutiny of external changes. Check with the council before ordering.

Front door security gates in Perth: questions
Do you cover Blairgowrie as well as Perth?
Yes. As well as Perth, we can arrange surveys in nearby Blairgowrie, Crieff and Cupar, and elsewhere in Perth and Kinross.
Can I fit a security gate to my flat door?
Usually, with the building owner's permission. Flat entrance doors often form part of a building's fire safety arrangements, so the gate must not obstruct escape or compromise the door.
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.
