How retractable security grilles work, and what to ask for

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.

Locks are built into the grille, often with a key on one side and a thumb turn on the other where escape matters. Top and bottom tracks keep the grille rigid and hard to lift or push in.

Options we can specify

  • Top and bottom tracks for rigidity
  • Folding lattice that stacks to the side
  • Powder coated in black, white or RAL
  • Integral locks, keyed or thumb turn
  • No shutter box needed
  • 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. 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.

Retractable security grilles: common questions

Do you cover Barking?

Yes. We survey, fit and repair retractable security grilles in Barking and the IG11 district, as part of our coverage across Greater London.

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.

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.

How long does it take from order to fitting?

Shutters are made to measure after the survey, so the lead time depends on the product, colour and any security rating. We confirm it in your quote.

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.
