Retractable security grilles in Skelmersdale: the essentials

Locks are built into the grille, often with a key on one side and a thumb turn on the other where escape matters. Removable bar grilles can be lifted out during the day for windows that do not need daily operation.

Retractable grilles fold to the side of the opening, so there is no box above the window or door. Some grilles are tested to security standards such as LPS 1175 or STS 202 if a rated product is needed.

Options we can specify

  • Top and bottom tracks for rigidity
  • Integral locks, keyed or thumb turn
  • Removable bar grilles for windows
  • Rated products available on request
  • No shutter box needed
  • Folding lattice that stacks to the side

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.

How it works

  1. Send the details

    Give us the postcode, approximate width and height, and what the shutter is protecting.

  2. We survey the opening

    An engineer measures and checks the fixings, power and any planning constraints.

  3. You approve a fixed price

    The quote lists the specification and price in writing, so there are no surprises.

  4. We fit and commission

    Your shutter is installed, tested and handed over with instructions and paperwork.

Questions about retractable security grilles in Skelmersdale

Do you cover Skelmersdale?

Yes. Skelmersdale (WN8) is within our Lancashire coverage, along with nearby Ormskirk, Wigan and Kirkby.

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 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.

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.

Who carries out the work?

Work is carried out by experienced shutter engineers working for S&K Property Investments and Improvement Ltd, which is the company your contract is with.

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.
