What to think about first
Escape routes
Grilles across exits must be managed so they never obstruct escape while people are inside.
Keys and procedures
Decide who locks up and whether one key or a master suite suits the business.
Consents and safety: 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.

Commercial security grilles in Durham: questions
Which towns in Durham do you cover?
We can arrange work anywhere in Durham, including Darlington, Hartlepool, Stockton-on-Tees, Durham and Chester-le-Street, and in other towns across the area.
Can you meet our insurer's requirements?
Send us the insurer's wording and we will quote to it. The insurer decides whether a product meets the policy.
Can grilles go across fire exits?
Only if they do not obstruct escape while the building is occupied. That usually means they are unlocked and parked open during working hours and locked only when the building is empty.
Can all our grilles use one key?
Yes. Locks can be keyed alike or supplied on a master-key suite.
