Getting the right commercial grille for your building
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.
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.
Grilles across exits in business premises
In workplaces and other non-domestic premises, including the common parts of blocks of flats and HMOs, the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 makes the responsible person keep escape routes and emergency exits available and easy to open while people are present. A grille across an exit should be unlocked and parked open whenever the building is occupied, and covered in the fire risk assessment.

Commercial security grilles in Chester-le-Street: questions
Can you survey in Chester-le-Street and nearby towns?
Yes. Surveys in Chester-le-Street, Washington, Houghton-le-Spring and elsewhere in Durham are booked around installer availability.
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 all our grilles use one key?
Yes. Locks can be keyed alike or supplied on a master-key suite.
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.
