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.
Options for hinged security gates in Boston
- Hold-open hooks or stays
- Lock box with cylinder operable from one or both sides
- Single, double and leaf-and-a-half layouts
- Galvanised and powder-coated for external use
- Panic or push-to-exit hardware options for escape routes
- Mesh infill option for anti-reach-through
Fitting in Boston and nearby
Boston is about 27 miles from Lincoln, the main centre for Lincolnshire. We can survey and fit across the PE21 district and in nearby places such as Spalding and Sleaford.
Lincolnshire combines the historic hilltop core of Lincoln with Grimsby and Scunthorpe's industrial terraces and many small market and coastal towns.
This type of grille suits:
- Plant rooms and bin stores
- Commercial back doors and service entrances
- Rear doors where wall space is limited
- Gated recesses and alleys
Questions we will ask at the survey
Mesh infill
Bars alone may let someone reach through to a handle or lock. Mesh infill closes that gap.
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.
Planning and safety in England
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 Boston: questions
Can you survey in Boston and nearby towns?
Yes. Surveys in Boston, Spalding, Sleaford and elsewhere in Lincolnshire are booked around installer availability.
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.
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.
