How retractable security grilles work, and what to ask for

Top and bottom tracks keep the grille rigid and hard to lift or push in. Powder-coated grilles in black or white blend with most frontages.

The open lattice lets light in and keeps displays visible, which suits shops and offices. Fitted inside the glazing, they usually avoid the planning issues of external shutters, though listed buildings may still need consent.

Features to choose from

  • Internal or external fitting
  • No shutter box needed
  • Folding lattice that stacks to the side
  • Integral locks, keyed or thumb turn
  • Removable bar grilles for windows
  • 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.

Before you book in Harlow

Do you cover Harlow?

Yes. We survey, fit and repair retractable security grilles in Harlow and the CM17 district, as part of our coverage across Essex.

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 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 you repair shutters fitted by other companies?

Yes. We repair and service most makes of roller shutter, grille and industrial door, whoever fitted them.

What warranty do I get?

Products carry the manufacturer's warranty, and the warranty for your shutter is set out in your quote.
