How roller grilles work, and what to ask for
An open curtain lets air and light through, so displays stay on view and the unit does not look closed down. Aluminium grilles are lighter and suit large unit fronts; steel grilles add strength.
Councils often see roller grilles as more acceptable than solid shutters in town centres. Grilles can be combined with a solid section at the base for kick protection.
Specification options
- Suited to shopping centre unit fronts
- Solid kick panel option
- Removable intermediate posts for wide units
- Optional polycarbonate infill
- Brick-bond, tubular or link lattice
- Manual or electric operation

Rules in England
Electrical work
Electric shutters are wired to BS 7671, the IET Wiring Regulations. In homes in England, new circuits are notifiable under Part P of the Building Regulations, so the work is done by a registered electrician who can self-certify it, or notified to building control.

Roller grilles: common questions
Do you cover St Helens?
Yes. We survey, fit and repair roller grilles in St Helens and the WA10 district, as part of our coverage across Merseyside.
Do roller grilles need planning permission?
External roller grilles usually need planning permission like other external security. Councils often find them more acceptable than solid shutters.
Can things be passed through a grille?
Small items can pass through an open lattice. Polycarbonate infill panels close the gaps if that is a concern.
Is a roller grille or a perforated shutter better?
A grille gives far more visibility and airflow, while a perforated shutter gives more privacy and weather protection. Shopping centres often specify grilles; high streets use both.
Is the survey free?
Yes, for new shutters, grilles and doors: the survey and written quote are free and there is no obligation to go ahead. Repair and servicing visits are charged, and we tell you the price before we visit.
Do your guide prices include VAT?
Guide prices are shown both excluding VAT and including VAT at the standard rate of 20%. For a home, the price including VAT is what you pay.
