Retractable security grilles in Archway: the essentials
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.
Grilles can be fitted to rear doors, stock rooms and vulnerable ground-floor windows as well as shopfronts. Locks are built into the grille, often with a key on one side and a thumb turn on the other where escape matters.
Specification options
- Powder coated in black, white or RAL
- Removable bar grilles for windows
- Integral locks, keyed or thumb turn
- Folding lattice that stacks to the side
- Rated products available on request
- 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.

Questions about retractable security grilles in Archway
Do you cover Archway?
Yes. Send the postcode and we will arrange a survey in Archway. We also cover nearby Holloway, Muswell Hill and Chalk Farm.
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 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.
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 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.
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.
