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.

Fitting in Guildford and nearby

We can arrange bespoke security grilles across Guildford, the main centre for Surrey, and in nearby towns including Godalming, Woking and Aldershot.

Surrey is mostly suburban and commuter housing, from interwar semis to large detached homes, with busy town centres such as Guildford and Woking.

This type of grille suits:

Feature windows and atriums
Listed and period buildings
Arched and Gothic windows
Oversized commercial openings

Questions we will ask at the survey

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.

Planning and safety in England

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.

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.

Bespoke security grilles in Guildford: questions

Which areas near Guildford do you cover?

We can arrange work in Guildford and in nearby Godalming (4 miles), Woking (6 miles) and Aldershot (8 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 bespoke grilles still be retractable?

Yes, within limits. Retractable grilles need straight tracks, so curved or arched parts are usually fixed.

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.
