What is the price of French door grilles in Tunbridge Wells?

Most French door grilles in Tunbridge Wells fall within £954 to £2,034 including VAT (£795 to £1,695 plus VAT) per pair of doors for supply and fitting. We confirm a fixed price in writing after a free survey, before anything is ordered.

French door grilles are usually a pair of retractable grilles that fold to each side of the doors and meet in the centre, where they lock together. They protect the glazing and the meeting stiles, which are the weak point of many French doors.

What you can specify

  • Optional shoot bolts top and bottom
  • Set back to clear inward-opening doors
  • Matches white, black or wood-effect frames
  • Low-profile floor track
  • Each side opens independently
  • Locks keyed alike with other grilles in the house

  • Period homes with timber French doors
  • French doors to gardens

Questions we will ask at the survey

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.

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.

We can arrange work in Tunbridge Wells and in nearby Tonbridge (4 miles), Crowborough (7 miles) and Sevenoaks (10 miles). Dates depend on installer availability.

Do French door grilles need a floor track?

Usually a low-profile one, which keeps the grille rigid and is easy to step over.

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.
