What to know about retractable security grilles in March

Retractable grilles fold to the side of the opening, so there is no box above the window or door. The open lattice lets light in and keeps displays visible, which suits shops and offices.

Top and bottom tracks keep the grille rigid and hard to lift or push in. Powder-coated grilles in black or white blend with most frontages.

Features to choose from

  • Integral locks, keyed or thumb turn
  • Rated products available on request
  • Top and bottom tracks for rigidity
  • Removable bar grilles for windows
  • Folding lattice that stacks to the side
  • Internal or external fitting

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.

Your questions answered

Do you cover March?

Yes. March (PE15) is within our Cambridgeshire coverage, along with nearby Wisbech, Ely and King's Lynn.

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.

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.

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 you work with landlords and managing agents?

Yes. We quote, fit and service shutters for landlords, managing agents and facilities teams, including multi-site planned maintenance.

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.
