Retractable security grilles in Weymouth: the essentials
Fitted inside the glazing, they usually avoid the planning issues of external shutters, though listed buildings may still need consent. Grilles on escape routes need to be openable quickly from the inside, which is checked against the fire risk assessment.
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.
What's included
- Top and bottom tracks for rigidity
- Internal or external fitting
- No shutter box needed
- Integral locks, keyed or thumb turn
- Folding lattice that stacks to the side
- Removable bar grilles for windows

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 Weymouth?
Yes. Send the postcode and we will arrange a survey in Weymouth. We also cover nearby Poole and Yeovil.
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 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.
What details help you quote quickly?
The postcode, the approximate width and height of the opening, whether you want manual or electric operation, and a photo of the frontage.
What warranty do I get?
Products carry the manufacturer's warranty, and the warranty for your shutter is set out in your quote.
