How retractable security grilles work, and what to ask for

Grilles can be fitted to rear doors, stock rooms and vulnerable ground-floor windows as well as shopfronts. Some grilles are tested to security standards such as LPS 1175 or STS 202 if a rated product is needed.

The open lattice lets light in and keeps displays visible, which suits shops and offices. Removable bar grilles can be lifted out during the day for windows that do not need daily operation.

Specification options

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

Covering Walkden and nearby

Jobs in Walkden are planned as part of our Greater Manchester coverage, and visits can be combined with jobs in nearby Farnworth, Swinton and Tyldesley. Planning rules are those of your local council in England.

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 Walkden?

Yes. Walkden (M28) is within our Greater Manchester coverage, along with nearby Farnworth, Swinton and Tyldesley.

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.

Can I get a quote from photos?

Photos and approximate sizes let us give you a guide price quickly. A survey is still needed before a shutter is made, because it is built to exact measurements.

What warranty do I get?

Products carry the manufacturer's warranty, and the warranty for your shutter is set out in your quote.
