Retractable security grilles in Brighton: the essentials

Powder-coated grilles in black or white blend with most frontages. 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. Locks are built into the grille, often with a key on one side and a thumb turn on the other where escape matters.

Features to choose from

  • Top and bottom tracks for rigidity
  • Integral locks, keyed or thumb turn
  • Removable bar grilles for windows
  • Powder coated in black, white or RAL
  • Rated products available on request
  • 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.

How it works

  1. Tell us about the opening

    Send the postcode, a rough size and a photo if you have one, using the form or a call.

  2. Free survey

    We measure, check the structure, power supply and planning position, and talk through options.

  3. Written fixed price

    You get a written quote with the product, finish, controls and price before anything is ordered.

  4. Made, fitted and handed over

    The shutter is made to measure, fitted, commissioned and handed over with its documents.

Your questions answered

Do you cover Brighton?

Yes. Send the postcode and we will arrange a survey in Brighton. We also cover nearby Hove, Burgess Hill and Worthing.

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 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.

Is the survey free?

Yes, for new shutters, grilles and doors: the survey and written quote are free and there is no obligation to go ahead. Repair and servicing visits are charged, and we tell you the price before we visit.

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.
