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
- Lock box with cylinder operable from one or both sides
- Heavy-duty hinges with anti-lift features
- Single, double and leaf-and-a-half layouts
- Hold-open hooks or stays
- Welded steel frame fixed into the opening
- Galvanised and powder-coated for external use

Finish

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.

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 Wednesbury: questions
Can you survey in Wednesbury and nearby towns?
Yes. Surveys in Wednesbury, Tipton, West Bromwich and elsewhere in West Midlands 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 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.
