How much do bespoke security grilles cost in Nottingham?
Most bespoke security grilles in Nottingham 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 goes into a bespoke grille
- Decorative bar patterns and scroll work
- Hidden or discreet fixings
- Retractable, fixed, removable or hinged in bespoke shapes
- Very large or multi-section screens
- Slim sections for period and listed buildings
- Arched, curved, raked and odd-shaped grilles
Fitting in Nottingham and nearby
We arrange surveys and fitting across Nottingham and the NG1 postcode district, and in nearby West Bridgford (2 miles), Arnold (3 miles) and Hucknall.
Nottinghamshire mixes Nottingham's Victorian terraces and Lace Market warehouses with former mining towns and their high streets.
Typical places for this kind of grille include:
- Oversized commercial openings
- Churches and community halls
- Feature windows and atriums
- Arched and Gothic windows
Things to decide before you order
Consents
Listed buildings and conservation areas may need consent; bespoke designs are often how consent is won.
Budget
Decorative work costs more than plain bars. We can price plain and decorative options side by side.
Rules that apply 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.
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 Nottingham: questions
Do you cover West Bridgford as well as Nottingham?
Yes. As well as Nottingham, we can arrange surveys in nearby West Bridgford, Arnold and Hucknall, and elsewhere in Nottinghamshire.
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.
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 bespoke grilles still be retractable?
Yes, within limits. Retractable grilles need straight tracks, so curved or arched parts are usually fixed.
