Hinged security gates in Paignton: what will it cost?
Our guide range for hinged security gates in Paignton is £834 to £2,034 including VAT (£695 to £1,695 plus VAT) per gate, including fitting. The survey is free for new installations and your fixed price follows in writing.
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.
Options for hinged security gates in Paignton
- Galvanised and powder-coated for external use
- Mesh infill option for anti-reach-through
- Hold-open hooks or stays
- Single, double and leaf-and-a-half layouts
- Welded steel frame fixed into the opening
- Panic or push-to-exit hardware options for escape routes
Fitting in Paignton and nearby
Paignton is about 26 miles from Plymouth, the main centre for Devon. We can survey and fit across the TQ3 district and in nearby places such as Torquay and Newton Abbot.
Devon runs from post-war Plymouth and Exeter city centres to Victorian seaside terraces in Torbay and thatched and stone cottages inland.
Common openings for hinged security gates:
- Flat entrance doors
- Commercial back doors and service entrances
- Plant rooms and bin stores
- Rear doors where wall space is limited
Getting the right hinged gate for your building
Finish
External gates last longest when galvanised before powder coating.
Mesh infill
Bars alone may let someone reach through to a handle or lock. Mesh infill closes that gap.
What the rules say in England
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.
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 Paignton: questions
Which areas near Paignton do you cover?
We can arrange work in Paignton and in nearby Torquay (3 miles), Newton Abbot (7 miles) and Exmouth (14 miles). Dates depend on installer availability.
Can you make a double gate?
Yes. Wide doorways can take a pair of gates or one large and one small leaf.
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.
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.
