Getting the right home grille for your building
Escape from bedrooms
Grilles over bedroom and upstairs windows need a release that opens from inside without a key.
Which openings first
Start with the most hidden and easiest openings, usually at the back and side.
What the rules say in 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 Newtown: questions
Do you cover Welshpool as well as Newtown?
Yes. As well as Newtown, we can arrange surveys in nearby Welshpool, Llandrindod Wells and Aberystwyth, and elsewhere in Powys.
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.
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.
