Before the visit

Like for like or upgrade

If the grille is sound, a better cylinder is a cheap upgrade.

Escape windows

Convert key-only grilles on escape windows to a keyless internal release.

Consents and safety: 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 in rented homes

Landlords in England must keep rented homes free from serious hazards under the Housing Health and Safety Rating System, which includes fire. A grille that stops a tenant using an escape window can create a hazard, so grilles in rented homes should have keyless internal releases.

How it works

  2. Choose like-for-like or upgrade
  3. Fitting and testing

Grille lock replacement and upgrades in Leigh: questions

Which areas near Leigh do you cover?

We can arrange work in Leigh and in nearby Atherton (2 miles), Tyldesley (2 miles) and Golborne (3 miles). Dates depend on engineer availability.

Can all my grilles use the same key?

Yes, by keying the new cylinders alike.

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.

I have lost my grille key. What can I do?

We can open and replace the lock so you have new keys and know who holds them.
