Choices you can make
- Matches white, black or wood-effect frames
- Locks keyed alike with other grilles in the house
- Each side opens independently
- Set back to clear inward-opening doors
- Optional shoot bolts top and bottom
- Pair of leaves meeting at a central lock

Tyne and Wear is known for Tyneside flats and brick terraces, Newcastle's listed Grainger Town, and large retail and office centres.
Typical places for this kind of grille include:
- Juliet balconies on upper floors (with escape in mind)
- Ground-floor flats
- French doors to gardens
- Period homes with timber French doors
Things to decide before you order
Upper floors
A grille behind Juliet balcony doors needs to keep any required escape route usable.
Door swing
Inward-opening doors need the grille set back far enough to clear the leaves.
Rules that apply in 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.
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 Jarrow: questions
Can you survey in Jarrow and nearby towns?
Yes. Surveys in Jarrow, Hebburn, Wallsend and elsewhere in Tyne and Wear are booked around installer availability.
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.
Do French door grilles need a floor track?
Usually a low-profile one, which keeps the grille rigid and is easy to step over.
