How much should I budget for bespoke security grilles in Grangemouth?
Budget £474 to £3,594 including VAT (£395 to £2,995 plus VAT) per opening for bespoke security grilles in Grangemouth, supplied and fitted. Size, number of leaves, colour and access all move the price, which is fixed in writing after the survey.
A bespoke security grille is designed and fabricated for one particular opening, such as an arched window, a curved bay, a very large screen or a period building where a standard grille would look wrong. It is measured on site, drawn up and made to suit.

- Arched, curved, raked and odd-shaped grilles

What to think about first
Lead time
Bespoke grilles take longer than standard ones because each is drawn and made individually.
Consents
Listed buildings and conservation areas may need consent; bespoke designs are often how consent is won.
Consents and safety: Scotland
Bedroom and escape windows
In Scotland, escape from homes is covered by the Building Standards technical handbooks (section 2, fire). Where a room relies on a window for escape, nothing fitted over it should stop it being used. We only fit grilles over escape windows with a keyless internal release.
External grilles and planning
External grilles and shutters on commercial buildings normally need planning permission from the council under the Scottish planning system. Councils' shopfront guidance commonly prefers internal, open-mesh security, particularly in conservation areas and town centres.

Bespoke security grilles in Grangemouth: questions
Can you survey in Grangemouth and nearby towns?
Yes. Surveys in Grangemouth, Falkirk, Alloa and elsewhere in Forth Valley are booked around installer availability.
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.
