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.

- Lock box with cylinder operable from one or both sides

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 Scotland
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.
Grilles across exits in business premises
In Scotland, the Fire (Scotland) Act 2005 and the Fire Safety (Scotland) Regulations 2006 make the duty holder keep escape routes and exits available and easy to open while people are present. A grille across an exit should be open whenever the premises are occupied.

Hinged security gates in Coatbridge: questions
Which areas near Coatbridge do you cover?
We can arrange work in Coatbridge and in nearby Airdrie (2 miles), Motherwell (5 miles) and Cumbernauld (6 miles). Dates depend on installer availability.
Can hinged gates be fitted outside?
Yes. They are often fitted outside commercial back doors, galvanised and powder-coated for weather resistance.
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.
