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.

Mesh infill option for anti-reach-through
Galvanised and powder-coated for external use
Lock box with cylinder operable from one or both sides
Hold-open hooks or stays
Panic or push-to-exit hardware options for escape routes

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.

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.

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 Margate: questions

Do you cover Broadstairs as well as Margate?

Yes. As well as Margate, we can arrange surveys in nearby Broadstairs, Ramsgate and Deal, and elsewhere in Kent.

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.

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.
