Choosing retractable security grilles for premises in Darwen

Removable bar grilles can be lifted out during the day for windows that do not need daily operation. Grilles can be fitted to rear doors, stock rooms and vulnerable ground-floor windows as well as shopfronts.

Powder-coated grilles in black or white blend with most frontages. Locks are built into the grille, often with a key on one side and a thumb turn on the other where escape matters.

Options we can specify

  • Folding lattice that stacks to the side
  • No shutter box needed
  • Rated products available on request
  • Powder coated in black, white or RAL
  • Integral locks, keyed or thumb turn
  • Internal or external fitting

Where we work around Darwen

Jobs in Darwen are planned as part of our Lancashire coverage, and visits can be combined with jobs in nearby Blackburn, Accrington and Chorley. 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.

Your questions answered

Do you cover Darwen?

Yes. Send the postcode and we will arrange a survey in Darwen. We also cover nearby Blackburn, Accrington and Chorley.

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.

Do you work with landlords and managing agents?

Yes. We quote, fit and service shutters for landlords, managing agents and facilities teams, including multi-site planned maintenance.

What warranty do I get?

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