Getting the right home grille for your building

Escape from bedrooms

Grilles over bedroom and upstairs windows need a release that opens from inside without a key.

Keys

Locks can be keyed alike so one key works every grille.

What the rules say in England

England

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.

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.

Home security grilles in Wallington: questions

Do you cover Carshalton as well as Wallington?

Yes. As well as Wallington, we can arrange surveys in nearby Carshalton, Sutton and South Croydon, and elsewhere in Greater London.

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.

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.
