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.
What you can specify
- Clear opening kept at or above the window's escape size
- White, black or anthracite finishes
- Retractable lattice that folds fully clear of the opening
- Release positioned at a sensible height
- Can be keyed alike with other grilles for daytime locking
- No key or tool needed to open from inside

Things to decide before you order
Children
Discuss the release position with us if young children use the room.
Release position
Easy to find and operate in the dark, but not something a passer-by can reach.
Rules that apply in England
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.
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.

Escape window grilles (quick release) in Spalding: questions
Do you cover Boston as well as Spalding?
Yes. As well as Spalding, we can arrange surveys in nearby Boston, Peterborough and Wisbech, and elsewhere in Lincolnshire.
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.
