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.
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.

French door grilles in Oswestry: questions
Which areas near Oswestry do you cover?
We can arrange work in Oswestry and in nearby Shrewsbury (16 miles), Chester (24 miles) and Wellington (25 miles). Dates depend on installer availability.
Will the grille match my doors?
We powder-coat grilles in white, black, anthracite or a RAL colour close to your frames.
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.
Can French door grilles open one side only?
Yes. Each leaf runs independently, so you can open one side and leave the other closed.
