Fitting in Tynemouth and nearby

Tynemouth is about 8 miles from Newcastle upon Tyne, the main centre for Tyne and Wear. We can survey and fit across the NE30 district and in nearby places such as North Shields and South Shields.

Tyne and Wear is known for Tyneside flats and brick terraces, Newcastle's listed Grainger Town, and large retail and office centres.

This type of grille suits:

Commercial back elevations
Rear storerooms and plant rooms
Outbuildings and workshops
Toilet and utility windows

Questions we will ask at the survey

Finish

External grilles last longest when hot-dip galvanised and then powder-coated.

Inside or outside

Inside fixing keeps the grille away from weather and tampering. Outside fixing suits windows with no internal access or depth.

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 Tynemouth: questions

Do you cover North Shields as well as Tynemouth?

Yes. As well as Tynemouth, we can arrange surveys in nearby North Shields, South Shields and Whitley Bay, and elsewhere in Tyne and Wear.

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.

Can fixed grilles be removed later?

Yes, by unbolting them from inside, though anti-tamper fixings are deliberately awkward to remove.

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.
