Securing access points is the most important part of any perimeter security strategy. The EnviroProtect® range of Single and Double Leaf Security Gates delivers certified, reliable, and durable solutions you can trust. Designed and manufactured in Great Britain, these gates meet the toughest modern security demands.
From commercial business parks and schools to Critical National Infrastructure, the range offers proven protection for every application. Each gate is built on a foundation of independent certification, advanced construction, and versatile design, ensuring your property, assets, and people are safeguarded without compromise.
At the heart of EnviroProtect® is its LPS 1175 A1 (SR1) certification. This is more than a feature; it is a guarantee of performance. Awarded by the Loss Prevention Certification Board (LPCB), the certification confirms that every gate has passed rigorous physical attack tests.
The A1 (SR1) rating means each gate can resist a determined attack for at least 60 seconds using common, easily concealed tools such as screwdrivers, pliers, knives, and wire cutters.
That one-minute delay is vital. For an intruder, it can be the difference between breaking in and giving up. For your security team, it provides the crucial window needed to detect and respond. Choosing an SR1 certified gate means investing in a system with scientifically measured, independently verified resistance, a standard trusted by insurers, auditors, and security professionals alike.
Many traditional gates fail at their weakest point, the welds. These joints are prone to rust and corrosion, which can undermine structural integrity over time. The EnviroProtect® range solves this issue with an innovative low-weld construction method.
Instead of vulnerable welds, the gates use high-strength, precision-engineered mechanical fixings. This eliminates the main cause of premature failure, resulting in a product with a longer lifespan and reduced maintenance. The gates keep their professional finish for longer, ensuring both performance and appearance are maintained.
This method also makes transport and installation simpler. The component-based design allows easier delivery to restricted areas and makes it possible to adjust the gates on-site to suit uneven ground, something rigid, fully welded gates cannot offer.
The EnviroProtect® range includes configurations to suit any access point.
Single Leaf Gates: Perfect for pedestrians and light vehicles. Available in widths from 1.0m to 3.0m, they are ideal for staff entrances, fire escapes, service access, and maintenance routes. Their robust, certified design ensures ease of use and reliable protection.
Double Leaf Gates: Designed for wider access points where vehicles are the priority. Available in widths from 2.0m to 6.0m, they can accommodate anything from vans to lorries. Their twin-leaf design offers excellent flexibility; open one leaf for pedestrian access or both for full vehicle entry. This layout also reduces the swing arc of each gate leaf, which is particularly useful in tighter spaces.
To suit different levels of security, gates are available in four standard heights: 1.8m, 2.0m, 2.4m, and 3.0m. The lower heights are well suited to commercial and industrial premises, while the taller gates provide a stronger deterrent for high-risk sites such as utilities, data centres, and MOD facilities.
Every gate is manufactured from pre-galvanised steel and finished with a durable polyester powder coating. Choose from a wide range of RAL colours to match your brand identity or blend with existing fencing. Installation options include both bolt-down posts for hard surfaces and dig-in posts for softer ground, ensuring a secure fit for any site.
