What to know about retractable security grilles in Leicestershire
The open lattice lets light in and keeps displays visible, which suits shops and offices. Retractable grilles fold to the side of the opening, so there is no box above the window or door. Top and bottom tracks keep the grille rigid and hard to lift or push in.
Fitted inside the glazing, they usually avoid the planning issues of external shutters, though listed buildings may still need consent. Grilles can be fitted to rear doors, stock rooms and vulnerable ground-floor windows as well as shopfronts.
Options we can specify
- Internal or external fitting
- Integral locks, keyed or thumb turn
- Rated products available on request
- No shutter box needed
- Folding lattice that stacks to the side
- Removable bar grilles for windows

Covering Leicestershire

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 Leicestershire
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.
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.
Can you fit outside trading hours?
Yes, out-of-hours fitting can be arranged for shops and businesses that cannot close during the day.
Will you take away my old shutter?
Yes. Removal and disposal of an old shutter is included when we quote for a replacement.
