- Retractable, hinged and bi-fold grille doors
- 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: Scotland
Listed buildings and conservation areas
Listed buildings in Scotland need listed building consent for works affecting their character, decided by the council, with Historic Environment Scotland consulted on some cases. Conservation areas bring extra scrutiny of external changes. Check with the council before ordering.
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.
