Planning and safety 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.

Is a better cylinder worth it?

Often, yes, by fitting a lock with a keyless internal release. We check the grille first.
