Retractable security grilles in Paignton: the essentials

Grilles on escape routes need to be openable quickly from the inside, which is checked against the fire risk assessment. Locks are built into the grille, often with a key on one side and a thumb turn on the other where escape matters.

Retractable grilles fold to the side of the opening, so there is no box above the window or door. Some grilles are tested to security standards such as LPS 1175 or STS 202 if a rated product is needed.

Options we can specify

  • Powder coated in black, white or RAL
  • Rated products available on request
  • Removable bar grilles for windows
  • Integral locks, keyed or thumb turn
  • Top and bottom tracks for rigidity
  • Folding lattice that stacks to the side

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.

Your questions answered

Do you cover Paignton?

Yes. We survey, fit and repair retractable security grilles in Paignton and the TQ3 district, as part of our coverage across Devon.

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.

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 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 I get a quote from photos?

Photos and approximate sizes let us give you a guide price quickly. A survey is still needed before a shutter is made, because it is built to exact measurements.

Will you take away my old shutter?

Yes. Removal and disposal of an old shutter is included when we quote for a replacement.
