Retractable security grilles in Loughton: the essentials

Some grilles are tested to security standards such as LPS 1175 or STS 202 if a rated product is needed. 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. Grilles on escape routes need to be openable quickly from the inside, which is checked against the fire risk assessment.

What's included

  • Removable bar grilles for windows
  • Top and bottom tracks for rigidity
  • Powder coated in black, white or RAL
  • Rated products available on request
  • Internal or external fitting
  • No shutter box needed

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 Loughton?

Yes. We survey, fit and repair retractable security grilles in Loughton and the IG10 district, as part of our coverage across Essex.

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.

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 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.

Are your prices fixed?

Yes. After the survey you get a written price for the agreed specification, confirmed before anything is ordered or any work starts. If you change the specification, or a hidden problem such as a weak lintel is found during fitting, we price it and agree it with you before carrying on.
