What to know about retractable security grilles in Muswell Hill
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.
Fitted inside the glazing, they usually avoid the planning issues of external shutters, though listed buildings may still need consent. Retractable grilles fold to the side of the opening, so there is no box above the window or door.
Options we can specify
- No shutter box needed
- Top and bottom tracks for rigidity
- Removable bar grilles for windows
- Rated products available on request
- Integral locks, keyed or thumb turn
- Powder coated in black, white or RAL

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.

Retractable security grilles: common questions
Do you cover Muswell Hill?
Yes. Send the postcode and we will arrange a survey in Muswell Hill. We also cover nearby Wood Green, Archway and Finchley.
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 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 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.
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.
