What to know about retractable security grilles in Newton Aycliffe
Grilles on escape routes need to be openable quickly from the inside, which is checked against the fire risk assessment. Fitted inside the glazing, they usually avoid the planning issues of external shutters, though listed buildings may still need consent.
Grilles can be fitted to rear doors, stock rooms and vulnerable ground-floor windows as well as shopfronts. The open lattice lets light in and keeps displays visible, which suits shops and offices.
Features to choose from
- No shutter box needed
- Integral locks, keyed or thumb turn
- Rated products available on request
- Top and bottom tracks for rigidity
- Powder coated in black, white or RAL
- 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 Newton Aycliffe?
Yes. We survey, fit and repair retractable security grilles in Newton Aycliffe and the DL5 district, as part of our coverage across County Durham.
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.
Are grilles as secure as shutters?
A good grille with top and bottom tracks is a strong deterrent and hard to defeat quickly. For tested security, rated grilles are available.
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.
Can you fit outside trading hours?
Yes, out-of-hours fitting can be arranged for shops and businesses that cannot close during the day.
Are your prices fixed?
Yes. After the survey you get a written price for the agreed specification, confirmed before anything is ordered or any work starts. If you change the specification, or a hidden problem such as a weak lintel is found during fitting, we price it and agree it with you before carrying on.
