Fitting in Bridlington and nearby
Bridlington is about 24 miles from Hull, the main centre for East Riding of Yorkshire. We can survey and fit across the YO16 district and in nearby places such as Driffield and Scarborough.
The East Riding includes Hull's dense Victorian terraces and docklands, the Georgian centre of Beverley, and coastal towns such as Bridlington.
Where French door grilles are most often used:
- Juliet balconies on upper floors (with escape in mind)
- French doors to gardens
- Period homes with timber French doors
- Ground-floor flats
What to think about first
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.
Consents and safety: 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.
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.
