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. 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. Grilles on escape routes need to be openable quickly from the inside, which is checked against the fire risk assessment.
Features to choose from
- Top and bottom tracks for rigidity
- Rated products available on request
- Internal or external fitting
- No shutter box needed
- Folding lattice that stacks to the side
- 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.

Retractable security grilles: common questions
Do you cover Caterham?
Yes. Caterham (CR3) is within our Surrey coverage, along with nearby Coulsdon, Purley and Redhill.
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.
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 your guide prices include VAT?
Guide prices are shown both excluding VAT and including VAT at the standard rate of 20%. For a home, the price including VAT is what you pay.
Will you take away my old shutter?
Yes. Removal and disposal of an old shutter is included when we quote for a replacement.
