Things to think about

Keyed alike

One key for all grilles is convenient for homes and small shops.

Like for like or upgrade

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

What the rules say in 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.

Grille lock replacement and upgrades in Fleetwood: questions

Do you cover Thornton-Cleveleys as well as Fleetwood?

Yes. As well as Fleetwood, we can arrange visits in nearby Thornton-Cleveleys, Blackpool and Morecambe, and elsewhere in Lancashire.

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.

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

Yes, on most makes, subject to compatible parts.
