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.

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.

Commercial security grilles in St Albans: questions

Do you cover Harpenden as well as St Albans?

Yes. As well as St Albans, we can arrange surveys in nearby Harpenden, Hatfield and Hemel Hempstead, and elsewhere in Hertfordshire.

Do we need the landlord's permission?

If you lease the building, usually yes, because grilles are fixed to the structure.

Can you work outside office hours?

Out-of-hours fitting can usually be arranged; the installer's availability is confirmed when you book.

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.
