Choosing retractable security grilles for premises in Farnworth
Locks are built into the grille, often with a key on one side and a thumb turn on the other where escape matters. Some grilles are tested to security standards such as LPS 1175 or STS 202 if a rated product is needed.
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.
Specification options
- Rated products available on request
- Top and bottom tracks for rigidity
- Powder coated in black, white or RAL
- Integral locks, keyed or thumb turn
- Internal or external fitting
- 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.

Retractable security grilles: common questions
Do you cover Farnworth?
Yes. We survey, fit and repair retractable security grilles in Farnworth and the BL4 district, as part of our coverage across Greater Manchester.
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.
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.
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.
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.
