Lock box with cylinder operable from one or both sides
Panic or push-to-exit hardware options for escape routes
Heavy-duty hinges with anti-lift features
Mesh infill option for anti-reach-through

Mesh infill

Bars alone may let someone reach through to a handle or lock. Mesh infill closes that gap.

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 Herne Bay: questions

Which areas near Herne Bay do you cover?

We can arrange work in Herne Bay and in nearby Whitstable (5 miles), Canterbury (7 miles) and Faversham (11 miles). Dates depend on 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.

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.

Can you make a double gate?

Yes. Wide doorways can take a pair of gates or one large and one small leaf.
