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.
What you can specify
- Low-profile tracks for doors and patio openings
- Quick-release escape handles for bedrooms and upstairs rooms
- Locks keyed alike across the house if you prefer
- Internal fitting so the outside of the home is unchanged
- Fitting arranged around your day, with dust sheets and tidy-up
- Free survey before any price is fixed

What to think about first
Escape from bedrooms
Grilles over bedroom and upstairs windows need a release that opens from inside without a key.
Look
Match the grille colour to your window frames and it will almost disappear.
Consents and safety: Scotland
Grilles inside the glass
A grille fitted inside the glass does not normally need planning permission in Scotland, as it does not materially change the outside of the building. If the building is listed, listed building consent may still be needed.
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.

Home security grilles in Alloa: questions
Do you cover Stirling as well as Alloa?
Yes. As well as Alloa, we can arrange surveys in nearby Stirling, Grangemouth and Falkirk, and elsewhere in Forth Valley.
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.
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.
Do I need planning permission for grilles on my house?
Internal grilles usually do not need planning permission. External grilles, listed homes and homes in conservation areas may need consent, so we check first.
