This type of grille suits:
- Ground-floor flats
- Period homes with timber French doors
- Dining rooms and kitchens
- Juliet balconies on upper floors (with escape in mind)
Questions we will ask at the survey
Door swing
Inward-opening doors need the grille set back far enough to clear the leaves.
Curtains and blinds
Stack positions are planned around curtain tracks and returns.
Planning and safety 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 Blackheath: questions
Can you survey in Blackheath and nearby towns?
Yes. Surveys in Blackheath, Greenwich, Catford and elsewhere in Greater London are booked around installer availability.
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.
Will the grille match my doors?
We powder-coat grilles in white, black, anthracite or a RAL colour close to your frames.
