Retractable security grilles in Bournemouth: the essentials

Removable bar grilles can be lifted out during the day for windows that do not need daily operation. 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

  • Removable bar grilles for windows
  • Powder coated in black, white or RAL
  • No shutter box needed
  • Integral locks, keyed or thumb turn
  • Top and bottom tracks for rigidity
  • Rated products available on request

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 Bournemouth

Do you cover Bournemouth?

Yes. Bournemouth (BH1) is within our Dorset coverage, along with nearby Christchurch, Poole and New Milton.

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 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.

How long does it take from order to fitting?

Shutters are made to measure after the survey, so the lead time depends on the product, colour and any security rating. We confirm it in your quote.
