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 at a sensible height
- Retractable lattice that folds fully clear of the opening
- No key or tool needed to open from inside
- Clear opening kept at or above the window's escape size
- Release positioned so it should not be reachable from outside
- White, black or anthracite finishes

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.
Bedroom and escape windows
Wales has its own Approved Documents under the Building Regulations. Approved Document B for Wales sets out escape window provisions for dwellings broadly in line with England's, including minimum opening sizes. We only fit grilles over escape windows with a keyless internal release.

Escape window grilles (quick release) in Tonypandy: questions
Do you cover Rhondda as well as Tonypandy?
Yes. As well as Tonypandy, we can arrange surveys in nearby Rhondda, Pontypridd and Aberdare, and elsewhere in Mid Glamorgan.
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.
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.
