Home security grilles in Hove: what will it cost?
As a guide, home security grilles in Hove cost £414 to £954 including VAT (£345 to £795 plus VAT) per window, supplied and fitted. The exact figure depends on size, type, finish and locking, and is confirmed in writing after the free survey.
Home security grilles are made-to-measure grilles for the windows and doors of houses and flats, usually retractable and fitted inside the glass. Folded back during the day they are barely noticeable; drawn across at night or when you are away, they stop entry through broken glass.
Choices you can make
- Free survey before any price is fixed
- White, black or anthracite to match frames
- Works with sash, casement, tilt-and-turn and bay windows
- Locks keyed alike across the house if you prefer
- Internal fitting so the outside of the home is unchanged
- Quick-release escape handles for bedrooms and upstairs rooms

Getting the right home grille for your building
Keys
Locks can be keyed alike so one key works every grille.
Escape from bedrooms
Grilles over bedroom and upstairs windows need a release that opens from inside without a key.
What the rules say in England
Listed buildings and conservation areas
Listed buildings need listed building consent for works that affect their character, which can include internal grilles and their fixings. In conservation areas, councils look closely at anything fitted to the outside. We recommend speaking to the council's conservation officer before ordering.
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.

Home security grilles in Hove: questions
Can you survey in Hove and nearby towns?
Yes. Surveys in Hove, Brighton, Portslade and elsewhere in East Sussex are booked around installer availability.
Are grilles safe if there is a fire?
Yes, provided any window needed for escape has a grille with a keyless internal release. We will not fit a key-only grille over an escape window.
Can grilles be fitted in a rented home?
Tenants need the landlord's permission. Landlords should make sure escape routes stay usable for tenants.
Will grilles affect my home insurance?
Some insurers ask about security measures. Tell your insurer about any changes; they decide whether it affects your policy.
