What to think about first

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.

Finish

External gates last longest when galvanised before powder coating.

Grilles across exits in business premises

In workplaces and other non-domestic premises, including the common parts of blocks of flats and HMOs, the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 makes the responsible person keep escape routes and emergency exits available and easy to open while people are present. A grille across an exit should be unlocked and parked open whenever the building is occupied, and covered in the fire risk assessment.

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 Rushden: questions

Do you cover Wellingborough as well as Rushden?

Yes. As well as Rushden, we can arrange surveys in nearby Wellingborough, Kettering and Bedford, and elsewhere in Northamptonshire.

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 hinged gates be fitted outside?

Yes. They are often fitted outside commercial back doors, galvanised and powder-coated for weather resistance.

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.
