What to think about first
Keys
Locks can be keyed alike so one key works every grille.
Look
Match the grille colour to your window frames and it will almost disappear.
Consents and safety: 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.
Bedroom and escape windows
Approved Document B (fire safety) expects many habitable rooms in houses, especially first-floor rooms, to have an emergency escape window with an unobstructed opening of at least 0.33 m², at least 450 mm high and 450 mm wide, with the bottom of the opening no more than 1,100 mm above the floor. We only fit grilles over escape windows with a release that opens from inside without a key.

Home security grilles in Willesden: questions
Can you survey in Willesden and nearby towns?
Yes. Surveys in Willesden, Cricklewood, Notting Hill and elsewhere in Greater London 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.
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.
