What you can specify
- Locks keyed alike across the house if you prefer
- Internal fitting so the outside of the home is unchanged
- Quick-release escape handles for bedrooms and upstairs rooms
- Fitting arranged around your day, with dust sheets and tidy-up

What to think about first
Escape from bedrooms

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.
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.
