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.

Fitting in Reigate and nearby

Surveys in Reigate (RH2) are booked around installer availability. We also cover nearby Redhill (2 miles), Horley (5 miles) and Banstead (6 miles).

Surrey is mostly suburban and commuter housing, from interwar semis to large detached homes, with busy town centres such as Guildford and Woking.

This type of grille suits:

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

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.

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.

Fixed window grilles and bars in Reigate: questions

Which areas near Reigate do you cover?

We can arrange work in Reigate and in nearby Redhill (2 miles), Horley (5 miles) and Banstead (6 miles). Dates depend on installer availability.

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.

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.

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.
