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.

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.
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.

Hinged security gates in Greenford: questions
Can you survey in Greenford and nearby towns?
Yes. Surveys in Greenford, Northolt, Southall and elsewhere in Greater London 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 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.
