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
Release positioned at a sensible height
White, black or anthracite finishes
Clear opening kept at or above the window's escape size
Keyless internal lever or push-button release

Things to decide before you order

Clear opening

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

Release position

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

Rules that apply in England

England

Bedroom and escape windows

Approved Document B (fire safety) expects many habitable rooms in houses, especially first-floor rooms, to have an emergency escape window with an unobstructed opening of at least 0.33 m², at least 450 mm high and 450 mm wide, with the bottom of the opening no more than 1,100 mm above the floor. We only fit grilles over escape windows with a release that opens from inside without a key.

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 Kidsgrove: questions

Can you survey in Kidsgrove and nearby towns?

Yes. Surveys in Kidsgrove, Congleton, Newcastle-under-Lyme and elsewhere in Staffordshire are booked around installer availability.

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.

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.
