A fixed window grille is a welded steel frame of bars bolted permanently over or inside a window. It has no moving parts and no lock to pick, which makes it the simplest and most economical grille for openings that are never used for access or escape.
What goes into a fixed grille
- Anti-tamper bolts or resin anchors into masonry
- Galvanised, powder-coated or both for external use
- Bar spacing chosen to stop entry while keeping light
- Made to measure for arched and odd-shaped openings
- Decorative bar patterns available for visible elevations
- Internal or external fixing

This type of grille suits:
- Rear storerooms and plant rooms
- Outbuildings and workshops
- Toilet and utility windows
- Commercial back elevations
Questions we will ask at the survey
Inside or outside
Inside fixing keeps the grille away from weather and tampering. Outside fixing suits windows with no internal access or depth.
Appearance
On front elevations or period buildings a decorative or slimmer bar pattern may sit better than a plain grid.
Planning and safety in England
Listed buildings and conservation areas
Listed buildings need listed building consent for works that affect their character, which can include internal grilles and their fixings. In conservation areas, councils look closely at anything fitted to the outside. We recommend speaking to the council's conservation officer before ordering.
External grilles and planning
External grilles and shutters on shops and other commercial buildings normally need planning permission from the local council because they change the building's appearance. Many councils' shopfront guides favour internal, open-lattice grilles, particularly in conservation areas.

Fixed window grilles and bars in Market Harborough: questions
Which areas near Market Harborough do you cover?
We can arrange work in Market Harborough and in nearby Corby (10 miles), Kettering (10 miles) and Wigston (10 miles). Dates depend on installer availability.
How are fixed grilles attached?
With anti-tamper bolts or resin anchors into solid masonry, or to a steel subframe where the wall is weak. Fixings are positioned so they cannot be reached from outside.
Can fixed bars go on a bedroom window?
Generally no. Bedroom and upstairs habitable room windows often need to work as escape windows, so they should have an openable grille with a keyless internal release.
Can fixed grilles be removed later?
Yes, by unbolting them from inside, though anti-tamper fixings are deliberately awkward to remove.
