How retractable security grilles work, and what to ask for

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.

Removable bar grilles can be lifted out during the day for windows that do not need daily operation. Fitted inside the glazing, they usually avoid the planning issues of external shutters, though listed buildings may still need consent.

Options we can specify

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

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 Kirkby?

Yes. Kirkby (L32) is within our Merseyside coverage, along with nearby Maghull, Litherland and Prescot.

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.

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.

How long does it take from order to fitting?

Shutters are made to measure after the survey, so the lead time depends on the product, colour and any security rating. We confirm it in your quote.
