Questions we will ask at the survey
Consents
Listed buildings and conservation areas may need consent; bespoke designs are often how consent is won.
Lead time
Bespoke grilles take longer than standard ones because each is drawn and made individually.
Planning and safety in England
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.
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.

Bespoke security grilles in Cheshire: questions
Which towns in Cheshire do you cover?
We can arrange work anywhere in Cheshire, including Warrington, Chester, Crewe, Ellesmere Port and Widnes, and in other towns across the area.
Can you copy an existing grille design?
We can make a grille in a similar style for a matching window. We do not copy other firms' registered designs.
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 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.
