What to think about first
Finish
External gates last longest when galvanised before powder coating.
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.
Consents and safety: 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.
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.

Hinged security gates in Camborne: questions
Do you cover Redruth as well as Camborne?
Yes. As well as Camborne, we can arrange surveys in nearby Redruth, Falmouth and Truro, and elsewhere in Cornwall.
Can you make a double gate?
Yes. Wide doorways can take a pair of gates or one large and one small leaf.
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.
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.
