Questions we will ask at the survey
Design approval
We agree a drawing showing bar layout, sections and finish before anything is made.
Consents
Listed buildings and conservation areas may need consent; bespoke designs are often how consent is won.
Planning and safety in England
External grilles and planning
External grilles and shutters on shops and other commercial buildings normally need planning permission from the local council because they change the building's appearance. Many councils' shopfront guides favour internal, open-lattice grilles, particularly in conservation areas.
Bedroom and escape windows
Approved Document B (fire safety) expects many habitable rooms in houses, especially first-floor rooms, to have an emergency escape window with an unobstructed opening of at least 0.33 m², at least 450 mm high and 450 mm wide, with the bottom of the opening no more than 1,100 mm above the floor. We only fit grilles over escape windows with a release that opens from inside without a key.

Bespoke security grilles in Bristol: questions
Which towns in Bristol do you cover?
We can arrange work anywhere in Bristol, including Clifton, Bedminster, Easton, Fishponds and Southville.
Can you make a grille for an arched window?
Yes. Fixed and removable grilles can follow the arch exactly, and retractable grilles can be fitted below the springing line with a fixed arched panel above.
Can bespoke grilles still be retractable?
Yes, within limits. Retractable grilles need straight tracks, so curved or arched parts are usually fixed.
Can a grille be designed for a listed building?
Yes. Slim sections, matched colours and minimal fixings help, but listed building consent is still needed for works that affect the building's character.
