- Panic or push-to-exit hardware options for escape routes
- Welded steel frame fixed into the opening

Fitting in Darlington and nearby
Darlington is about 17 miles from Durham, the main centre for Durham. We can survey and fit across the DL3 district and in nearby places such as Newton Aycliffe and Stockton-on-Tees.
County Durham's stock is dominated by brick terraces in former colliery towns, alongside the listed historic core of Durham city and Teesside's commercial centres.
Typical places for this kind of grille include:
- Flat entrance doors
- Rear doors where wall space is limited
- Commercial back doors and service entrances
- Gated recesses and alleys
Things to decide before you order
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.
Rules that apply in 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 Darlington: questions
Can you survey in Darlington and nearby towns?
Yes. Surveys in Darlington, Newton Aycliffe, Stockton-on-Tees and elsewhere in Durham are booked around installer availability.
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.

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.
