Fitting in Harwich and nearby
Harwich is about 37 miles from Southend-on-Sea, the main centre for Essex. We can survey and fit across the CO12 district and in nearby places such as Felixstowe and Ipswich.
Essex ranges from Victorian terraces in Southend and Colchester to new towns such as Harlow and Basildon and large commuter estates near London.
Typical places for this kind of grille include:
- Juliet balconies on upper floors (with escape in mind)
- Dining rooms and kitchens
- Period homes with timber French doors
- Ground-floor flats
Things to decide before you order
Curtains and blinds
Stack positions are planned around curtain tracks and returns.
Upper floors
A grille behind Juliet balcony doors needs to keep any required escape route usable.
Rules that apply in England
Grilles inside the glass
A grille fitted inside the glass does not normally need planning permission, because it does not materially change how the building looks from outside. If the building is listed, listed building consent may still be needed.
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.

French door grilles in Harwich: questions
Do you cover Felixstowe as well as Harwich?
Yes. As well as Harwich, we can arrange surveys in nearby Felixstowe, Ipswich and Clacton-on-Sea, and elsewhere in Essex.
Do French door grilles need a floor track?
Usually a low-profile one, which keeps the grille rigid and is easy to step over.
Can French door grilles open one side only?
Yes. Each leaf runs independently, so you can open one side and leave the other closed.
Will the grille match my doors?
We powder-coat grilles in white, black, anthracite or a RAL colour close to your frames.
