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
- Free survey before any price is fixed
- Fitting arranged around your day, with dust sheets and tidy-up
- White, black or anthracite to match frames
- Low-profile tracks for doors and patio openings
- Internal fitting so the outside of the home is unchanged
- Quick-release escape handles for bedrooms and upstairs rooms
Fitting in Hayes and nearby
We arrange surveys and fitting in Hayes and across the UB3 postcode district, as well as in nearby Southall (2 miles) and Heston (3 miles). Dates depend on installer availability.
London's buildings range from Victorian and Edwardian terraces and mansion blocks to post-war estates, with long high streets of ground-floor shops below flats.
Where home security grilles are most often used:
- Ground-floor windows at the back of the house
- Homes left empty while travelling
- Flats with windows on walkways or balconies
- Bungalows, where every room is on the ground floor
What to think about first
Look
Match the grille colour to your window frames and it will almost disappear.
Which openings first
Start with the most hidden and easiest openings, usually at the back and side.
Consents and safety: England
Grilles inside the glass
A grille fitted inside the glass does not normally need planning permission, because it does not materially change how the building looks from outside. If the building is listed, listed building consent may still be needed.
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.

Home security grilles in Hayes: questions
Can you survey in Hayes and nearby towns?
Yes. Surveys in Hayes, Southall, Heston and elsewhere in Greater London are booked around installer availability.
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.
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.
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.
