Hinged security gates in Newquay: what will it cost?
Budget £834 to £2,034 including VAT (£695 to £1,695 plus VAT) per gate for hinged security gates in Newquay, supplied and fitted. Size, number of leaves, colour and access all move the price, which is fixed in writing after the survey.
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.
What you can specify
- Heavy-duty hinges with anti-lift features
- Panic or push-to-exit hardware options for escape routes
- Welded steel frame fixed into the opening
- Hold-open hooks or stays
- Lock box with cylinder operable from one or both sides
- Single, double and leaf-and-a-half layouts

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:
- Commercial back doors and service entrances
- Plant rooms and bin stores
- Gated recesses and alleys
- Rear doors where wall space is limited
Getting the right hinged gate for your building
Mesh infill
Bars alone may let someone reach through to a handle or lock. Mesh infill closes that gap.
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.
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.
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.

Hinged security gates in Newquay: questions
Can you survey in Newquay and nearby towns?
Yes. Surveys in Newquay, Truro, St Austell and elsewhere in Cornwall are booked around installer availability.
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.
Can hinged gates be fitted outside?
Yes. They are often fitted outside commercial back doors, galvanised and powder-coated for weather resistance.
How long do hinged gates take to make?
Each gate is made to measure after the survey. We confirm the lead time with your quote.
