- Internal fitting so the outside of the home is unchanged

What to think about first
Keys
Locks can be keyed alike so one key works every grille.
Escape from bedrooms
Grilles over bedroom and upstairs windows need a release that opens from inside without a key.
Consents and safety: England
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.
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.

Home security grilles in Heywood: questions
Which areas near Heywood do you cover?
We can arrange work in Heywood and in nearby Middleton (3 miles), Rochdale (3 miles) and Bury (3 miles). Dates depend on installer availability.
Can grilles be fitted in a rented home?
Tenants need the landlord's permission. Landlords should make sure escape routes stay usable for tenants.
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.
