What you can specify
- Fixing to counters, bulkheads or subframes
- Bottom-rail or side locks
- Neat integration with countertops
- Brushed, anodised or powder-coated finishes
- Manual operation for small openings
- Stainless or aluminium to suit food areas

Consents and safety: 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.

Yes, by fixing to the counter structure or a subframe built into it.
