Fitting in Tewkesbury and nearby
Tewkesbury is about 9 miles from Gloucester, the main centre for Gloucestershire. We can survey and fit across the GL20 district and in nearby places such as Cheltenham and Gloucester.
Gloucestershire mixes Cotswold stone towns and villages, Regency terraces in Cheltenham, and the commercial and retail centres of Gloucester and Yate.
Common openings for counter and hatch grilles:
- Takeaway and café hatches
- Ticket and reception counters
- Pharmacy and dispensary counters
- School and canteen serveries
Getting the right hatch grille for your building
Coil box or side stack
Roller grilles need a little head space; retractables need side space.
Fire separation
If the hatch is in a fire-resisting wall, a standard grille does not replace a fire shutter.
What the rules say in England
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.
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.
