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.

Hampshire runs from Portsmouth's dense Victorian terraces and Southampton's post-war centre to market towns such as Winchester with large conservation areas.
Typical places for this kind of grille include:
- Rear doors where wall space is limited
- Flat entrance doors
- Commercial back doors and service entrances
- Plant rooms and bin stores
Things to decide before you order
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.
Mesh infill
Bars alone may let someone reach through to a handle or lock. Mesh infill closes that gap.
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.
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 Winchester: questions
Do you cover Eastleigh as well as Winchester?
Yes. As well as Winchester, we can arrange surveys in nearby Eastleigh, Southampton and Totton, and elsewhere in Hampshire.
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.
