What to think about first
Certified product, not certified installer
The certificate covers the manufacturer's tested product. Check the certificate reference against the LPCB's listing.
Installation
A certified grille only performs as tested if it is fixed into a suitable structure as the manufacturer specifies.
Consents and safety: England
Listed buildings and conservation areas
Listed buildings need listed building consent for works that affect their character, which can include internal grilles and their fixings. In conservation areas, councils look closely at anything fitted to the outside. We recommend speaking to the council's conservation officer before ordering.
External grilles and planning
External grilles and shutters on shops and other commercial buildings normally need planning permission from the local council because they change the building's appearance. Many councils' shopfront guides favour internal, open-lattice grilles, particularly in conservation areas.
