What to know about retractable security grilles in Herne Bay

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.

Powder-coated grilles in black or white blend with most frontages. Fitted inside the glazing, they usually avoid the planning issues of external shutters, though listed buildings may still need consent.

Options we can specify

  • Folding lattice that stacks to the side
  • Top and bottom tracks for rigidity
  • No shutter box needed
  • Internal or external fitting
  • Powder coated in black, white or RAL
  • Removable bar grilles for windows

Where we work around Herne Bay

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.

Before you book in Herne Bay

Do you cover Herne Bay?

Yes. Herne Bay (CT6) is within our Kent coverage, along with nearby Whitstable, Canterbury and Faversham.

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.

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.

Will you take away my old shutter?

Yes. Removal and disposal of an old shutter is included when we quote for a replacement.
