Hinged security gates in Loughborough: what will it cost?
Budget £834 to £2,034 including VAT (£695 to £1,695 plus VAT) per gate for hinged security gates in Loughborough, supplied and fitted. Size, number of leaves, colour and access all move the price, which is fixed in writing after the survey.
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.

Fitting in Loughborough and nearby
Loughborough is about 9 miles from Leicester, the main centre for Leicestershire. We can survey and fit across the LE11 district and in nearby places such as Coalville and Leicester.
Leicestershire mixes Leicester's Victorian terraces and busy retail streets with market towns such as Loughborough and Melton Mowbray.
Common openings for hinged security gates:
- Gated recesses and alleys
- Rear doors where wall space is limited
- Plant rooms and bin stores
- Flat entrance doors
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.
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.
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 Loughborough: questions
Can you survey in Loughborough and nearby towns?
Yes. Surveys in Loughborough, Coalville, Leicester and elsewhere in Leicestershire are booked around installer availability.
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.
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.
