FOR DOMESTIC PREMISES

Elegant good looks with a heart of steel - the SeceuroGuard 1000 Retractable Security Gate System combines a classic appearance with strength, making it an ideal security choice for large windows throughout the home. The high quality components used in manufacturing make this one of the best security grilles for large window applications in the UK market. It is strong and yet subtle in appearance with elegant profile sections.

Designed to keep intruders out while letting maximum light in, they are perfect for:

• Large living room and lounge windows

• Bay windows and bow windows

• Picture windows and feature windows

• Expansive bedroom windows

• Large kitchen windows and breakfast areas

• Bi-fold window systems and folding window walls

• Ground floor large aperture windows

• Home cinema room windows

• Conservatory and orangery windows

• Any large vulnerable openings requiring substantial security

Gates can be left locked with windows open to provide ventilation without a security issue. Perfect in the summer months.

When not in use these retractable gates are surprisingly unobtrusive. They can disappear neatly behind curtains, and a pelmet can be used to conceal the top track.

The collapsible security gates are configured for large window openings up to 3600mm wide and 2500mm high, accommodating the largest residential window installations. Customers can choose between single sash (stacking to one side) or double sash (stacking to both sides) depending on their window configuration and personal preference.

Single sash arrangements are ideal for large windows where one side is more accessible or where architectural features on one side make double stacking impractical. Double sash configurations provide balanced aesthetics and are particularly suitable for very wide windows where dividing the grille in the centre creates a more proportional appearance and reduces the stack-back depth on each side.

Installation flexibility is provided with options for between-aperture fitting (for recessed installations) or face-fix mounting (where insufficient reveal depth exists or where face mounting is architecturally preferred).

Essentially maintenance free, each SeceuroGuard 1000 is available in a range of powder coated colour options to complement your décor, and can also be supplied with optional decorative 'S' Profile lattices instead of the standard X lattice design.

Installation Process Overview

1. Site Preparation

• Position top track using temporary supports
• Use spirit level to ensure perfect horizontal alignment—critical for smooth operation
• Mark all fixing positions through pre-drilled holes in framework
• For face-fixed installations, ensure fixing frame is plumb and square

• Drill pilot holes to correct depth for substrate type
• Install fixings progressively, checking alignment after each fixing
• Torque fixings to manufacturer's specifications—avoid over-tightening 
• Ensure minimum fixing centres are maintained (typically 400-600mm)

• Attach sash carrier wheels to top track
• Guide lattice sash into track system
• For larger installations, sections may require on-site joining with provided fixings
