What to know about retractable security grilles in Trowbridge
Top and bottom tracks keep the grille rigid and hard to lift or push in. 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.
Options we can specify
- Folding lattice that stacks to the side
- Rated products available on request
- Removable bar grilles for windows
- Powder coated in black, white or RAL
- Top and bottom tracks for rigidity
- Integral locks, keyed or thumb turn

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 Trowbridge
Do you cover Trowbridge?
Yes. Send the postcode and we will arrange a survey in Trowbridge. We also cover nearby Bath, Frome and Chippenham.
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.
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.
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.
