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. Grilles on escape routes need to be openable quickly from the inside, which is checked against the fire risk assessment.
Some grilles are tested to security standards such as LPS 1175 or STS 202 if a rated product is needed. Retractable grilles fold to the side of the opening, so there is no box above the window or door.
Specification options
- Rated products available on request
- No shutter box needed
- Integral locks, keyed or thumb turn
- Powder coated in black, white or RAL
- Internal or external fitting
- Top and bottom tracks for rigidity

Covering Tyne and Wear
We cover Tyne and Wear from Newcastle upon Tyne to Sunderland, South Shields and Gateshead, with 12 towns listed below. Planning decisions for external shutters sit with your local council in England, and we check the position at survey.
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 Tyne and Wear
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 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.
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.
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.
Can I get a quote from photos?
Photos and approximate sizes let us give you a guide price quickly. A survey is still needed before a shutter is made, because it is built to exact measurements.
