What is the price of bespoke security grilles in Macclesfield?
Budget £474 to £3,594 including VAT (£395 to £2,995 plus VAT) per opening for bespoke security grilles in Macclesfield, supplied and fitted. Size, number of leaves, colour and access all move the price, which is fixed in writing after the survey.

- Design drawing agreed before fabrication
- Decorative bar patterns and scroll work
- Any RAL colour, galvanised or both

Cheshire has half-timbered and listed buildings in central Chester, Victorian terraces in Crewe and Warrington, and large modern estates across the county.
This type of grille suits:
- Feature windows and atriums
- Listed and period buildings
- Arched and Gothic windows
- Churches and community halls
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
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 Macclesfield: questions
Do you cover Wilmslow as well as Macclesfield?
Yes. As well as Macclesfield, we can arrange surveys in nearby Wilmslow, Congleton and Cheadle Hulme, and elsewhere in Cheshire.
How long do bespoke grilles take?
Longer than standard grilles because each is drawn and fabricated individually. The lead time is confirmed with the quote.
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 bespoke grilles still be retractable?
Yes, within limits. Retractable grilles need straight tracks, so curved or arched parts are usually fixed.
