Things to decide before you order

Release position

Easy to find and operate in the dark, but not something a passer-by can reach.

Clear opening

The folded grille must not reduce the window's clear opening below what escape requires.

Rules that apply in England

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 Bridgwater: questions

Which areas near Bridgwater do you cover?

We can arrange work in Bridgwater and in nearby Burnham-on-Sea (8 miles), Taunton (9 miles) and Weston-super-Mare (15 miles). Dates depend on installer availability.

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.

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.
