Home security grilles in Lancashire

Home security grilles in Lancashire: what will it cost?

Budget £414 to £954 including VAT (£345 to £795 plus VAT) per window for home security grilles in Lancashire, supplied and fitted. Size, number of leaves, colour and access all move the price, which is fixed in writing after the survey.

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.

Getting the right home grille for your building

Look

Match the grille colour to your window frames and it will almost disappear.

Escape from bedrooms

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

What the rules say in England

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 Lancashire: questions

Which towns in Lancashire do you cover?

We can arrange work anywhere in Lancashire, including Preston, Burnley, Blackburn, Blackpool and Morecambe, and in other towns across the area.

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.

Do I need planning permission for grilles on my house?

Internal grilles usually do not need planning permission. External grilles, listed homes and homes in conservation areas may need consent, so we check first.
