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 you can specify
- Anti-tamper bolts or resin anchors into masonry
- Welded steel frame with vertical bars or a grid
- Internal or external fixing
- Made to measure for arched and odd-shaped openings
- Galvanised, powder-coated or both for external use
- Bar spacing chosen to stop entry while keeping light

Mid Glamorgan is dominated by stone terraces climbing the valley sides, with town centres in Bridgend, Merthyr Tydfil and Pontypridd.
Typical places for this kind of grille include:
- Commercial back elevations
- Outbuildings and workshops
- Basement and cellar windows
- Rear storerooms and plant rooms
Things to decide before you order
Appearance
On front elevations or period buildings a decorative or slimmer bar pattern may sit better than a plain grid.
Never needed for escape
A fixed grille should only go on a window that is not needed as an escape route. Bedrooms and upstairs habitable rooms usually need an openable alternative.
Rules that apply in Wales
External grilles and planning
External grilles and shutters on commercial buildings normally need planning permission from the local planning authority. Welsh councils' shopfront and design guidance generally favours internal, see-through security over solid external shutters.
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.

Fixed window grilles and bars in Tonypandy: questions
Can you survey in Tonypandy and nearby towns?
Yes. Surveys in Tonypandy, Rhondda, Pontypridd and elsewhere in Mid Glamorgan are booked around 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.
Do fixed grilles need planning permission?
Internal fixed grilles usually do not. External grilles on front elevations, listed buildings or in conservation areas may need consent, so we check before ordering.
Can fixed grilles be removed later?
Yes, by unbolting them from inside, though anti-tamper fixings are deliberately awkward to remove.
