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.
Choices you can make
- Mesh infill option for anti-reach-through
- Galvanised and powder-coated for external use
- Single, double and leaf-and-a-half layouts
- Heavy-duty hinges with anti-lift features
- Lock box with cylinder operable from one or both sides
- Panic or push-to-exit hardware options for escape routes

- Flat entrance doors
What to think about first
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.
Mesh infill
Bars alone may let someone reach through to a handle or lock. Mesh infill closes that gap.

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 Rugeley: questions
Can you survey in Rugeley and nearby towns?
Yes. Surveys in Rugeley, Burntwood, Cannock and elsewhere in Staffordshire are booked around installer availability.
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.
Can you make a double gate?
Yes. Wide doorways can take a pair of gates or one large and one small leaf.
Can hinged gates be fitted outside?
Yes. They are often fitted outside commercial back doors, galvanised and powder-coated for weather resistance.
