How retractable security grilles work, and what to ask for
Some grilles are tested to security standards such as LPS 1175 or STS 202 if a rated product is needed. Top and bottom tracks keep the grille rigid and hard to lift or push in.
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
- Internal or external fitting
- Integral locks, keyed or thumb turn
- Top and bottom tracks for rigidity
- Folding lattice that stacks to the side
- No shutter box needed
- 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 Gosport?
Yes. Gosport (PO12) is within our Hampshire coverage, along with nearby Portsmouth, Fareham and Ryde.
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.
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.
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.
