Hinged security gates in Burntwood

Hinged security gates in Burntwood: what will it cost?

Budget £834 to £2,034 including VAT (£695 to £1,695 plus VAT) per gate for hinged security gates in Burntwood, 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.

Getting the right hinged gate for your building

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.

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.

What the rules say in England

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.

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.

Hinged security gates in Burntwood: questions

Can you survey in Burntwood and nearby towns?

Yes. Surveys in Burntwood, Lichfield, Cannock and elsewhere in Staffordshire 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.

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.
