- Hold-open hooks or stays
- Lock box with cylinder operable from one or both sides

Things to decide before you order
Finish
External gates last longest when galvanised before powder coating.
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.
Rules that apply in Scotland
Listed buildings and conservation areas
Listed buildings in Scotland need listed building consent for works affecting their character, decided by the council, with Historic Environment Scotland consulted on some cases. Conservation areas bring extra scrutiny of external changes. Check with the council before ordering.
External grilles and planning
External grilles and shutters on commercial buildings normally need planning permission from the council under the Scottish planning system. Councils' shopfront guidance commonly prefers internal, open-mesh security, particularly in conservation areas and town centres.

Hinged security gates in Fife: questions
Which towns in Fife do you cover?
We can arrange work anywhere in Fife, including Dunfermline, Kirkcaldy, Glenrothes, Cupar and Leven, and in other towns across the area.
Can you make a double gate?
Yes. Wide doorways can take a pair of gates or one large and one small leaf.
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.
Is a hinged gate stronger than a retractable grille?
A well-made hinged gate is very strong because it has a rigid frame and solid bars. Retractable grilles trade a little rigidity for the ability to fold away.
