What to think about first

Which openings first

Start with the most hidden and easiest openings, usually at the back and side.

Escape from bedrooms

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

Consents and safety: Wales

Wales

Grilles in rented homes

Under the Renting Homes (Wales) Act 2016, landlords must keep dwellings fit for human habitation, which takes fire hazards into account. Grilles over windows a contract-holder may need for escape should open from inside without a key.

Grilles inside the glass

A grille fitted inside the glass does not normally need planning permission in Wales, as it does not materially change the outside of the building. If the building is listed, listed building consent may still be needed.

Home security grilles in Gwent: questions

Which towns in Gwent do you cover?

We can arrange work anywhere in Gwent, including Newport, Cwmbran, Pontypool, Ebbw Vale and Risca, and in other towns across the area.

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.

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.
