Fitting in Leighton Buzzard and nearby
Leighton Buzzard is about 11 miles from Luton, the main centre for Bedfordshire. We can survey and fit across the LU7 district and in nearby places such as Dunstable and Bletchley.
Bedfordshire runs from Victorian terraces in Bedford and Luton to large post-war estates and new-build edges around Leighton Buzzard, with busy retail parades in every town centre.
Typical places for this kind of grille include:
- Rear doors where wall space is limited
- Gated recesses and alleys
- Commercial back doors and service entrances
- Plant rooms and bin stores
Things to decide before you order
Swing direction
The gate needs clear space to open. We check steps, bins and the door's own swing before deciding which way it hangs.
Finish
External gates last longest when galvanised before powder coating.
Rules that apply in England
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.
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.
