Bespoke security grilles in Barnes: what will it cost?
Most bespoke security grilles in Barnes fall within £474 to £3,594 including VAT (£395 to £2,995 plus VAT) per opening for supply and fitting. We confirm a fixed price in writing after a free survey, before anything is ordered.
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.
What you can specify
- Slim sections for period and listed buildings
- Decorative bar patterns and scroll work
- Arched, curved, raked and odd-shaped grilles
- Any RAL colour, galvanised or both
- Retractable, fixed, removable or hinged in bespoke shapes
- Design drawing agreed before fabrication

Getting the right bespoke grille for your building
Lead time
Bespoke grilles take longer than standard ones because each is drawn and made individually.
Budget
Decorative work costs more than plain bars. We can price plain and decorative options side by side.
What the rules say 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.
Listed buildings and conservation areas
Listed buildings need listed building consent for works that affect their character, which can include internal grilles and their fixings. In conservation areas, councils look closely at anything fitted to the outside. We recommend speaking to the council's conservation officer before ordering.

Bespoke security grilles in Barnes: questions
Can you survey in Barnes and nearby towns?
Yes. Surveys in Barnes, Chiswick, Putney and elsewhere in Greater London are booked around installer availability.
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.
Can bespoke grilles still be retractable?
Yes, within limits. Retractable grilles need straight tracks, so curved or arched parts are usually fixed.
