French door grilles in Dewsbury: what will it cost?
Budget £954 to £2,034 including VAT (£795 to £1,695 plus VAT) per pair of doors for French door grilles in Dewsbury, supplied and fitted. Size, number of leaves, colour and access all move the price, which is fixed in writing after the survey.

- Low-profile floor track
- Each side opens independently

Getting the right French door grille for your building
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.
What the rules say 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.

How long does it take to fit?

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.
