  • Replacement cylinders and lock bodies
  • Additional shoot bolts top and bottom

Getting the best result

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.

Planning and safety in Scotland

Scotland

Bedroom and escape windows

In Scotland, escape from homes is covered by the Building Standards technical handbooks (section 2, fire). Where a room relies on a window for escape, nothing fitted over it should stop it being used. We only fit grilles over escape windows with a keyless internal release.

Grilles across exits in business premises

In Scotland, the Fire (Scotland) Act 2005 and the Fire Safety (Scotland) Regulations 2006 make the duty holder keep escape routes and exits available and easy to open while people are present. A grille across an exit should be open whenever the premises are occupied.

Can you change a lock on a grille you did not fit?

Yes, on most makes, subject to compatible parts.

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.
