Landlord consent

Keys and procedures
Decide who locks up and whether one key or a master suite suits the business.

Grilles inside the glass
A grille fitted inside the glass does not normally need planning permission, because it does not materially change how the building looks from outside. If the building is listed, listed building consent may still be needed.
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 Smethwick: questions
Can you survey in Smethwick and nearby towns?
Yes. Surveys in Smethwick, West Bromwich, Birmingham and elsewhere in West Midlands are booked around installer availability.
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 you work outside office hours?
Out-of-hours fitting can usually be arranged; the installer's availability is confirmed when you book.
Can all our grilles use one key?
Yes. Locks can be keyed alike or supplied on a master-key suite.
