Retractable security grilles in Sudbury: the essentials

Grilles can be fitted to rear doors, stock rooms and vulnerable ground-floor windows as well as shopfronts. Locks are built into the grille, often with a key on one side and a thumb turn on the other where escape matters.

Some grilles are tested to security standards such as LPS 1175 or STS 202 if a rated product is needed. Top and bottom tracks keep the grille rigid and hard to lift or push in.

Options we can specify

  • Internal or external fitting
  • Rated products available on request
  • Powder coated in black, white or RAL
  • Integral locks, keyed or thumb turn
  • No shutter box needed
  • Removable bar grilles for windows

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.

    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.

Your questions answered

Do you cover Sudbury?

Yes. Send the postcode and we will arrange a survey in Sudbury. We also cover nearby Colchester, Haverhill and Braintree.

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 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.

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.

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.
