A hinged security gate is a steel bar gate hung on its own welded frame in front of or behind a door. It swings open and closed like a second door and locks with a heavy-duty lock box, making it a strong choice for back doors, plant rooms and service entrances.

Choices you can make

Lock box with cylinder operable from one or both sides
Hold-open hooks or stays
Mesh infill option for anti-reach-through
Galvanised and powder-coated for external use
Panic or push-to-exit hardware options for escape routes
Heavy-duty hinges with anti-lift features

Getting the right hinged gate for your building

Escape route

If the gate is on an exit route, consider escape hardware or a management plan so it is never locked while people are inside.

Mesh infill

Bars alone may let someone reach through to a handle or lock. Mesh infill closes that gap.

What the rules say in Scotland

Scotland

Grilles across exits in business premises

In Scotland, the Fire (Scotland) Act 2005 and the Fire Safety (Scotland) Regulations 2006 make the duty holder keep escape routes and exits available and easy to open while people are present. A grille across an exit should be open whenever the premises are occupied.

External grilles and planning

External grilles and shutters on commercial buildings normally need planning permission from the council under the Scottish planning system. Councils' shopfront guidance commonly prefers internal, open-mesh security, particularly in conservation areas and town centres.

Hinged security gates in Campbeltown: questions

Which areas near Campbeltown do you cover?

We can arrange work in Campbeltown and in nearby Saltcoats (35 miles), Troon (38 miles) and Ayr (38 miles). Dates depend on installer availability.

Can hinged gates be fitted outside?

Yes. They are often fitted outside commercial back doors, galvanised and powder-coated for weather resistance.

Can a hinged gate be used on a fire exit?

Only if it does not prevent escape while the building is occupied, for example with push-to-exit hardware or by being unlocked and fixed open during opening hours.

Is a hinged gate stronger than a retractable grille?

A well-made hinged gate is very strong because it has a rigid frame and solid bars. Retractable grilles trade a little rigidity for the ability to fold away.
