- Lock boxes with cylinders on a master-key suite

What to think about first
Partition strength
A grille is only as strong as what it is fixed to; stud walls may need reinforcement.
Escape routes
Grilles across corridors that are escape routes need careful management and should be shown in your fire risk assessment.
Consents and safety: England
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.
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.

Internal security grilles in Pimlico: questions
Can you survey in Pimlico and nearby towns?
Yes. Surveys in Pimlico, Battersea, Chelsea and elsewhere in Greater London are booked around installer availability.
Can an internal grille go across a corridor?
Yes, but if the corridor is an escape route the grille must be open whenever people are in the building.
Can you add mesh to stop things being passed through?
Yes. Mesh infill is common on stockroom and dispensary grilles.
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.
