Rules that apply in Wales
Grilles in rented homes
Under the Renting Homes (Wales) Act 2016, landlords must keep dwellings fit for human habitation, which takes fire hazards into account. Grilles over windows a contract-holder may need for escape should open from inside without a key.
Grilles across exits in business premises
The Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 applies in Wales, including to the common parts of blocks of flats and HMOs. The responsible person must keep escape routes and exits available and easy to open while people are present, so a grille across an exit should be open whenever the premises are occupied.

Grille lock replacement and upgrades in Flint: questions
Which areas near Flint do you cover?
Yes. As well as Flint, we can arrange visits in nearby Deeside, Mold and Buckley, and elsewhere in Clwyd.
Is a better cylinder worth it?
On a grille that is otherwise sound, a higher-security cylinder is an inexpensive way to raise resistance to lock attack.

We can open and replace the lock so you have new keys and know who holds them.
Can all my grilles use the same key?
Yes, by keying the new cylinders alike.
