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
- Low-profile tracks for doors and patio openings
- Works with sash, casement, tilt-and-turn and bay windows
- Free survey before any price is fixed
- Internal fitting so the outside of the home is unchanged
- Fitting arranged around your day, with dust sheets and tidy-up
- Quick-release escape handles for bedrooms and upstairs rooms

Match the grille colour to your window frames and it will almost disappear.
What the rules say in 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 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 Whitefield: questions
Do you cover Radcliffe as well as Whitefield?
Yes. As well as Whitefield, we can arrange surveys in nearby Radcliffe, Prestwich and Bury, and elsewhere in Greater Manchester.
Can grilles be fitted in a rented home?
Tenants need the landlord's permission. Landlords should make sure escape routes stay usable for tenants.
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.
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.
