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
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.
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.

Home security grilles in Grangemouth: questions
Can you survey in Grangemouth and nearby towns?
Yes. Surveys in Grangemouth, Falkirk, Alloa and elsewhere in Forth Valley are booked around installer availability.
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.
Do home security grilles look like prison bars?
Not when they are fitted inside the glass in a matching colour. Folded back, a grille is a slim stack at the side of the 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.
