What to know about retractable security grilles in Coulsdon
Grilles on escape routes need to be openable quickly from the inside, which is checked against the fire risk assessment. The open lattice lets light in and keeps displays visible, which suits shops and offices.
Grilles can be fitted to rear doors, stock rooms and vulnerable ground-floor windows as well as shopfronts. Fitted inside the glazing, they usually avoid the planning issues of external shutters, though listed buildings may still need consent.
What's included
- Internal or external fitting
- Top and bottom tracks for rigidity
- No shutter box needed
- Powder coated in black, white or RAL
- Folding lattice that stacks to the side
- Removable bar grilles for windows

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 Coulsdon
Do you cover Coulsdon?
Yes. Send the postcode and we will arrange a survey in Coulsdon. We also cover nearby Purley, Banstead and Wallington.
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.
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.
What warranty do I get?
Products carry the manufacturer's warranty, and the warranty for your shutter is set out in your quote.
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.
