Things to decide before you order
Food areas
Smooth, cleanable finishes suit kitchens and serveries.
Fire separation
If the hatch is in a fire-resisting wall, a standard grille does not replace a fire shutter.
Rules that apply 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.

A standard security grille is not fire rated. If the hatch needs fire separation, a fire-rated shutter is required instead.
