What you can specify
- Works with sash, casement, tilt-and-turn and bay windows
- Quick-release escape handles for bedrooms and upstairs rooms
- Internal fitting so the outside of the home is unchanged
- Low-profile tracks for doors and patio openings
- Locks keyed alike across the house if you prefer
- White, black or anthracite to match frames

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.
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.

Home security grilles in Daventry: questions
Do you cover Rugby as well as Daventry?
Yes. As well as Daventry, we can arrange surveys in nearby Rugby, Northampton and Leamington Spa, and elsewhere in Northamptonshire.
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.
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 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.
