How much do French door grilles cost in Aberdeen?
Budget £954 to £2,034 including VAT (£795 to £1,695 plus VAT) per pair of doors for French door grilles in Aberdeen, supplied and fitted. Size, number of leaves, colour and access all move the price, which is fixed in writing after the survey.

What you can specify
- Low-profile floor track
- Matches white, black or wood-effect frames
- Pair of leaves meeting at a central lock
- Locks keyed alike with other grilles in the house
- Each side opens independently

North-east Scotland is known for granite tenements and houses in Aberdeen, fishing towns along the coast and stone-built market towns inland.
Typical places for this kind of grille include:
- French doors to gardens
- Juliet balconies on upper floors (with escape in mind)
- Period homes with timber French doors
- Ground-floor flats
Things to decide before you order
Upper floors
A grille behind Juliet balcony doors needs to keep any required escape route usable.
One side or both
A centre-meeting pair lets you open one side for everyday use.
Rules that apply in Scotland
Grilles inside the glass
A grille fitted inside the glass does not normally need planning permission in Scotland, as it does not materially change the outside of the building. If the building is listed, listed building consent may still be needed.
Listed buildings and conservation areas
Listed buildings in Scotland need listed building consent for works affecting their character, decided by the council, with Historic Environment Scotland consulted on some cases. Conservation areas bring extra scrutiny of external changes. Check with the council before ordering.

French door grilles in Aberdeen: questions
Can you survey in Aberdeen and nearby towns?
Yes. Surveys in Aberdeen, Stonehaven, Inverurie and elsewhere in Aberdeen, Aberdeenshire and Moray are booked around installer availability.
Can French door grilles open one side only?
Yes. Each leaf runs independently, so you can open one side and leave the other closed.
How long does it take to fit?
Usually two to three hours once the grilles arrive.
My French doors open inwards. Can I still have a grille?
Yes. The grille is set back from the doors so they can swing open, or fitted outside if there is no room inside.
