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

Retractable lattice that folds fully clear of the opening
Release positioned so it should not be reachable from outside
No key or tool needed to open from inside
Clear opening kept at or above the window's escape size
Can be keyed alike with other grilles for daytime locking
White, black or anthracite finishes

Planning and safety in England

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 in rented homes

Landlords in England must keep rented homes free from serious hazards under the Housing Health and Safety Rating System, which includes fire. A grille that stops a tenant using an escape window can create a hazard, so grilles in rented homes should have keyless internal releases.

Escape window grilles (quick release) in Tonbridge: questions

Do you cover Tunbridge Wells as well as Tonbridge?

Yes. As well as Tonbridge, we can arrange surveys in nearby Tunbridge Wells, Sevenoaks and Crowborough, and elsewhere in Kent.

Could a burglar use the quick release?

It should not be possible from outside. The release is on the inside face and positioned so it is not reachable through the lattice from outside; we check this at fitting.

How does a quick-release grille work?

A lever or push release on the inside of the lock box unlatches the grille so it can be slid open in one movement, with no key needed.

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.
