Hinged security gates in Wiltshire: what will it cost?
Budget £834 to £2,034 including VAT (£695 to £1,695 plus VAT) per gate for hinged security gates in Wiltshire, 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.
What you can specify
- Galvanised and powder-coated for external use
- Mesh infill option for anti-reach-through
- Single, double and leaf-and-a-half layouts
- Lock box with cylinder operable from one or both sides

Getting the right hinged gate for your building
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.
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.
What the rules say in England
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 Wiltshire: questions
Which towns in Wiltshire do you cover?
We can arrange work anywhere in Wiltshire, including Swindon, Salisbury, Trowbridge, Chippenham and Calne, and in other towns across the area.
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.
Can you make a double gate?
Yes. Wide doorways can take a pair of gates or one large and one small leaf.
