An escape window grille is a retractable grille with a release on the inside that opens it without a key or tool. It secures a window against entry from outside while keeping the window usable as an emergency escape route from inside, which bedroom and upstairs windows often need to be.
Choices you can make
- Release positioned so it should not be reachable from outside
- Clear opening kept at or above the window's escape size
- White, black or anthracite finishes
- No key or tool needed to open from inside
- Release positioned at a sensible height
- Can be keyed alike with other grilles for daytime locking

Things to decide before you order
Is it an escape window?
If the room relies on the window for escape, the grille must have a keyless release.
Clear opening
The folded grille must not reduce the window's clear opening below what escape requires.
Rules that apply in Wales
Grilles inside the glass
A grille fitted inside the glass does not normally need planning permission in Wales, as it does not materially change the outside of the building. If the building is listed, listed building consent may still be needed.
Grilles in rented homes
Under the Renting Homes (Wales) Act 2016, landlords must keep dwellings fit for human habitation, which takes fire hazards into account. Grilles over windows a contract-holder may need for escape should open from inside without a key.

Escape window grilles (quick release) in Flint: questions
Can you survey in Flint and nearby towns?
Yes. Surveys in Flint, Deeside, Mold and elsewhere in Clwyd are booked around installer availability.
Can I lock a quick-release grille when I go away?
Some designs allow a key lock to be used as well, for when the house is empty. The release must always be usable when anyone is sleeping there.
Do landlords need escape grilles?
Landlords must keep escape routes usable for tenants. A key-only grille over a bedroom escape window is a fire hazard, so a quick-release grille is the safer choice.
Can I have security grilles on bedroom windows?
Yes, as long as the grille opens from inside without a key or tool. That keeps the window usable as an escape route.
