Retractable security grilles in Berkshire: the essentials

Fitted inside the glazing, they usually avoid the planning issues of external shutters, though listed buildings may still need consent. Powder-coated grilles in black or white blend with most frontages. The open lattice lets light in and keeps displays visible, which suits shops and offices.

Retractable grilles fold to the side of the opening, so there is no box above the window or door. Locks are built into the grille, often with a key on one side and a thumb turn on the other where escape matters.

What's included

  • Top and bottom tracks for rigidity
  • Folding lattice that stacks to the side
  • Powder coated in black, white or RAL
  • Internal or external fitting
  • Rated products available on request
  • No shutter box needed

Covering Berkshire

We cover Berkshire from Reading to Slough, Bracknell and Maidenhead, with 10 towns listed below. Planning decisions for external shutters sit with your local council in England, and we check the position at survey.

Rules in England

Planning permission for shopfront shutters

In England an external shutter on a shopfront is usually treated as development that needs planning permission from the local planning authority, and a listed building also needs listed building consent. Many councils' shopfront design guides favour internal shutters, perforated or open-grille designs and boxes hidden behind the fascia, and some refuse solid external shutters in conservation areas and on main shopping streets.

How it works

  1. Send the details

    Give us the postcode, approximate width and height, and what the shutter is protecting.

  2. We survey the opening

    An engineer measures and checks the fixings, power and any planning constraints.

  3. You approve a fixed price

    The quote lists the specification and price in writing, so there are no surprises.

  4. We fit and commission

    Your shutter is installed, tested and handed over with instructions and paperwork.

Questions about retractable security grilles in Berkshire

Can a grille be fitted on a fire exit?

Only if it can be opened quickly from the inside without a key, and the fire risk assessment allows it. We check this before fitting.

Do grilles get in the way during the day?

Retractable grilles fold neatly to the side of the opening. Removable grilles can be lifted out and stored.

Do retractable grilles need planning permission?

Grilles fitted inside the glazing usually do not need planning permission, though listed buildings may need consent. External grilles are treated like other external security and often need permission.

What warranty do I get?

Products carry the manufacturer's warranty, and the warranty for your shutter is set out in your quote.

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.
