Bespoke security grilles in Chorley: what will it cost?
Our guide range for bespoke security grilles in Chorley is £474 to £3,594 including VAT (£395 to £2,995 plus VAT) per opening, including fitting. The survey is free for new installations and your fixed price follows in writing.
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.

- Hidden or discreet fixings
- Retractable, fixed, removable or hinged in bespoke shapes
- Decorative bar patterns and scroll work
- Very large or multi-section screens

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
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.
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 Chorley: questions
Which areas near Chorley do you cover?
We can arrange work in Chorley and in nearby Leyland (4 miles), Darwen (7 miles) and Wigan (7 miles). Dates depend on 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 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 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.
