Rules that apply in Scotland

Scotland

Grilles in rented homes

Private landlords in Scotland must meet the repairing standard, which includes fire safety provisions. Grilles over windows a tenant may need for escape should open from inside without a key.

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.

Grille lock replacement and upgrades in Peebles: questions

Do you cover Penicuik as well as Peebles?

Yes. As well as Peebles, we can arrange visits in nearby Penicuik, Galashiels and Dalkeith, and elsewhere in Scottish Borders.

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.

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.
