What to know about retractable security grilles in Glasgow

Powder-coated grilles in black or white blend with most frontages. Grilles on escape routes need to be openable quickly from the inside, which is checked against the fire risk assessment.

Some grilles are tested to security standards such as LPS 1175 or STS 202 if a rated product is needed. Retractable grilles fold to the side of the opening, so there is no box above the window or door.

Features to choose from

  • Internal or external fitting
  • Folding lattice that stacks to the side
  • Rated products available on request
  • Top and bottom tracks for rigidity
  • Integral locks, keyed or thumb turn
  • Powder coated in black, white or RAL

Rules in Scotland

Planning permission for shopfront shutters

In Scotland fitting an external security shutter to a shopfront normally needs planning permission from the council, and listed building consent if the building is listed. Councils often ask for the box to be concealed and for open or perforated designs rather than solid shutters in conservation areas.

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.

Before you book in Glasgow

Do you cover Glasgow?

Yes. Glasgow (G1) is within our Glasgow & Dunbartonshire coverage, along with nearby Rutherglen, Bishopbriggs and Bearsden.

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.

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.

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.

What warranty do I get?

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