Internal security grilles in Penrith: what will it cost?
Our guide range for internal security grilles in Penrith is £595 to £1,995 plus VAT (£714 to £2,394 inc VAT) per opening, including fitting. The survey is free for new installations and your fixed price follows in writing.
Internal security grilles divide a building into zones. Fitted across corridors, stockroom doors, cash offices and server rooms, they keep valuable areas locked off from the rest of the building after hours, or from visitors and staff who do not need access during the day.

- See-through barriers that keep CCTV coverage
- Retractable, hinged and bi-fold grille doors

Getting the right internal grille for your building
Access control
Hinged grille doors can take electric locks or readers, wired by a suitable contractor.
Partition strength
A grille is only as strong as what it is fixed to; stud walls may need reinforcement.
What the rules say in England
Insurer requirements
Insurers set their own conditions for business premises, stock and cash. If your policy names a type or rating of grille, get the wording in writing before ordering; the insurer decides whether a product meets it.
Grilles across exits in business premises
In workplaces and other non-domestic premises, including the common parts of blocks of flats and HMOs, the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 makes the responsible person keep escape routes and emergency exits available and easy to open while people are present. A grille across an exit should be unlocked and parked open whenever the building is occupied, and covered in the fire risk assessment.

Internal security grilles in Penrith: questions
Do you cover Carlisle as well as Penrith?
Yes. As well as Penrith, we can arrange surveys in nearby Carlisle, Kendal and Workington, and elsewhere in Cumbria.
Can internal grilles be fixed to stud walls?
Yes, with reinforcement such as a steel subframe or timber noggins, because a grille is only as strong as its fixings.
Can you add mesh to stop things being passed through?
Yes. Mesh infill is common on stockroom and dispensary grilles.
Can grille doors take access control?
Hinged grille doors can be prepared for electric locks or readers, with the wiring done by a suitable installer.
