- Mesh infill to stop items being passed through
- Retractable, hinged and bi-fold grille doors

Things to decide before you order
Partition strength
A grille is only as strong as what it is fixed to; stud walls may need reinforcement.
Access control
Hinged grille doors can take electric locks or readers, wired by a suitable contractor.
Rules that apply in 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 Preston: questions
Can you survey in Preston and nearby towns?
Yes. Surveys in Preston, Leyland, Chorley and elsewhere in Lancashire are booked around installer availability.
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.
Do internal grilles need planning permission?
Generally not, though listed buildings may need consent for internal works.
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.
