What Are Alleygates?

Alleygates are steel, self-locking gates installed at the ends of alleyways and passages to restrict access. They are a simple and effective way to help prevent crime and improve community safety.

  • Two forms of ID showing your current address (e.g. utility bill, council tax bill, driving licence, passport)
  • A £15 deposit, which will be refunded when you return the key
