Fitting in Rotherham and nearby

Rotherham is about 6 miles from Sheffield, the main centre for South Yorkshire. We can survey and fit across the S60 district and in nearby places such as Sheffield and Barnsley.

South Yorkshire is dominated by brick and stone terraces in Sheffield, Doncaster, Rotherham and Barnsley, alongside large city-centre retail and commercial areas.

This type of grille suits:

Toilet and utility windows
Rear storerooms and plant rooms
Commercial back elevations
Basement and cellar windows

Questions we will ask at the survey

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.

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 Rotherham: questions

Which areas near Rotherham do you cover?

We can arrange work in Rotherham and in nearby Sheffield (6 miles), Barnsley (10 miles) and Dronfield (10 miles). Dates depend on installer availability.

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.

Will fixed bars rust?

Galvanised and powder-coated steel is designed for years of outdoor use. Chips in the coating should be touched up to keep the protection intact.
