Choosing retractable security grilles for premises in Thornaby-on-Tees

Fitted inside the glazing, they usually avoid the planning issues of external shutters, though listed buildings may still need consent. 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. 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

  • No shutter box needed
  • Internal or external fitting
  • Folding lattice that stacks to the side
  • Integral locks, keyed or thumb turn
  • Rated products available on request
  • 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.

Before you book in Thornaby-on-Tees

Do you cover Thornaby-on-Tees?

Yes. We survey, fit and repair retractable security grilles in Thornaby-on-Tees and the TS17 district, as part of our coverage across North Yorkshire.

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.

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.

Do you repair shutters fitted by other companies?

Yes. We repair and service most makes of roller shutter, grille and industrial door, whoever fitted them.

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.
