What is the price of quick-release escape window grilles in Dudley?

As a guide, quick-release escape window grilles in Dudley cost £534 to £1,074 including VAT (£445 to £895 plus VAT) per window, supplied and fitted. The exact figure depends on size, type, finish and locking, and is confirmed in writing after the free survey.

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

Keyless internal lever or push-button release
Release positioned so it should not be reachable from outside
White, black or anthracite finishes
Retractable lattice that folds fully clear of the opening
Clear opening kept at or above the window's escape size
Release positioned at a sensible height

Release position

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

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 Dudley: questions

Do you cover Brierley Hill as well as Dudley?

Yes. As well as Dudley, we can arrange surveys in nearby Brierley Hill, Tipton and Kingswinford, and elsewhere in West Midlands.

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.

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.

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.
