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.

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.

Front door security gates in Wednesbury: questions

Can you survey in Wednesbury and nearby towns?

Yes. Surveys in Wednesbury, Tipton, West Bromwich and elsewhere in West Midlands are booked around installer availability.

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.

Will I still get post?

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

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.
