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.

What goes into a hinged gate

Lock box with cylinder operable from one or both sides
Hold-open hooks or stays
Galvanised and powder-coated for external use
Mesh infill option for anti-reach-through
Single, double and leaf-and-a-half layouts

Fitting in Ipswich and nearby

Surveys in Ipswich (IP1) are booked around installer availability, as they are in nearby Harwich (10 miles) and Felixstowe (11 miles).

Suffolk has timber-framed and listed buildings in its market towns, Ipswich's Victorian terraces and waterfront, and coastal towns such as Lowestoft.

Typical places for this kind of grille include:

Commercial back doors and service entrances
Rear doors where wall space is limited
Gated recesses and alleys
Plant rooms and bin stores

Things to decide before you order

Mesh infill

Bars alone may let someone reach through to a handle or lock. Mesh infill closes that gap.

Finish

External gates last longest when galvanised before powder coating.

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.
