Bespoke security grilles in Wood Green: what will it cost?
As a guide, bespoke security grilles in Wood Green cost £474 to £3,594 including VAT (£395 to £2,995 plus VAT) per opening, supplied and fitted. The exact figure depends on size, type, finish and locking, and is confirmed in writing after the free 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.

- Retractable, fixed, removable or hinged in bespoke shapes
- Very large or multi-section screens
- Design drawing agreed before fabrication
- Any RAL colour, galvanised or both

Getting the right bespoke grille for your building
Design approval
We agree a drawing showing bar layout, sections and finish before anything is made.
Consents
Listed buildings and conservation areas may need consent; bespoke designs are often how consent is won.
What the rules say in England
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.
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 Wood Green: questions
Can you survey in Wood Green and nearby towns?
Yes. Surveys in Wood Green, Muswell Hill, Tottenham 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 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.
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.
