Shutters & security
Security grilles
What you are buying with security grilles: retractable and fixed grilles that secure without hiding the frontage, made to the dimensions we take on site.
Why businesses choose it
Where anything is fitted to the outside of the building, we check whether planning consent is needed first. Electric operation can be by key switch, remote or both, with a manual override for power cuts. Every installation is tested through its full travel and the safety features are checked at handover.
Working with us
Multi-unit landlords, contractors and growing retailers use us because one contract covers the frontage, the security and the entrance. One programme, one point of contact, one set of O&M documents at handover.
Options and specification
- Powder-coated to match the frontage
- Retractable lattice or fixed bar designs
- Folds back into the reveal during trading
How much do security grilles cost?
The entry price is about £1,150 plus VAT. Width, height, finish and access move the final figure. Once issued, the price is fixed for 90 days unless the specification changes.
How long does it take?
Expect 2-3 weeks after survey for manufacture. Installation in your is usually a day or two once everything is made. Early starts and closed-day fitting are both possible.

Questions about security grilles
Do I need planning permission near me?
Like-for-like replacements usually do not. Changing the appearance of the frontage, fitting an external roller shutter or adding an illuminated sign usually needs consent from your local council. We tell you which applies at survey.
How long does it take?
Lead time for security grilles is typically 2-3 weeks after survey. Installation itself is usually one to two days on site for a standard unit.
Can you work outside trading hours?
Yes, work can be arranged for a closed day or outside trading hours where the business cannot close. We agree it with you when booking.
Is the survey free?
Yes. The survey is free and carries no obligation to go ahead.
