What to think about first
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.
Consents and safety: Northern Ireland
Grilles across exits in business premises
The Fire and Rescue Services (Northern Ireland) Order 2006 and the Fire Safety Regulations (Northern Ireland) 2010 make the appropriate person 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.
Listed buildings and conservation areas
Listed buildings in Northern Ireland need listed building consent for works affecting their character, with the council deciding and the Department for Communities' Historic Environment Division advising. Conservation areas bring extra scrutiny of external changes.
