Lead time

Budget
Decorative work costs more than plain bars. We can price plain and decorative options side by side.

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 Mangotsfield: questions
Do you cover Bristol as well as Mangotsfield?
Yes. As well as Mangotsfield, we can arrange surveys in nearby Bristol, Yate and Bath, and elsewhere in Gloucestershire.
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 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 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.
