North Yorkshire runs from York's walled historic centre and Harrogate's Victorian stone to Teesside's terraces and the Dales' stone villages.

Grilles across exits in business premises

In workplaces and other non-domestic premises, including the common parts of blocks of flats and HMOs, the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 makes the responsible person keep escape routes and emergency exits available and easy to open while people are present. A grille across an exit should be unlocked and parked open whenever the building is occupied, and covered in the fire risk assessment.

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.

Grille lock replacement and upgrades in Middlesbrough: questions

Which areas near Middlesbrough do you cover?

We can arrange work in Middlesbrough and in nearby Billingham (2 miles), Stockton-on-Tees (3 miles) and Thornaby-on-Tees (4 miles). Dates depend on engineer availability.

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 a key-only grille be converted to quick release?

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

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.
