Side-Folding Security Grilles and Partitions

What Is a Side-Folding Security Grille?

A side-folding security grille is a solid or lattice-shaped partition that folds to the side to open and extends flat across the doorway to close. 

Side-folding security grilles and partitions offer an appealing blend of advantages. Their sturdy, durable construction provides added safety and security for rooms, storefronts, and inventory. Their lightweight construction also makes them easy to use as room dividers or storefront protection. In many cases, their open framework allows ideal visibility — people can see into stores and look at the products — while still providing vital security.

Side-folding doors and grilles often have different constructions depending on their intended use. A security grille designed to protect a storefront in a mall or other shopping area will likely contain light, strong anodized aluminum panels for strength and durability. A partition intended to divide a room for privacy and soundproofing may have folding plastic panels.
