Hinged security gates in Falmouth: what will it cost?
Most hinged security gates in Falmouth fall within £834 to £2,034 including VAT (£695 to £1,695 plus VAT) per gate for supply and fitting. We confirm a fixed price in writing after a free survey, before anything is ordered.
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.

- Mesh infill option for anti-reach-through

Fitting in Falmouth and nearby
Falmouth is about 8 miles from Truro, the main centre for Cornwall. We can survey and fit across the TR11 district and in nearby places such as Truro and Redruth.
Cornwall's stock is largely granite and slate cottages, terraces and holiday lets, with many seasonal properties left empty for part of the year.
Common openings for hinged security gates:
- Flat entrance doors
- Commercial back doors and service entrances
- Plant rooms and bin stores
- Gated recesses and alleys
Getting the right hinged gate for your building
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.
What the rules say in England
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.
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.
