How much do patio and bifold door grilles cost in Dorset?
Budget £1,074 to £2,994 including VAT (£895 to £2,495 plus VAT) per set of doors for patio and bifold door grilles in Dorset, supplied and fitted. Size, number of leaves, colour and access all move the price, which is fixed in writing after the survey.
A patio door grille is a wide retractable grille fitted inside sliding patio or bifold doors. Closed, it protects a large glazed opening that is often out of sight at the back of the house; open, it folds into slim stacks so the view and access are unaffected.
Choices you can make
- White, black, anthracite or RAL
- Low-profile or recessed floor tracks
- Locks operable from inside
- Matched to aluminium, uPVC or timber frames
- Stacks positioned to clear handles and curtains
- Optional extra locking points for wide spans

Things to decide before you order
Colour
Anthracite grilles sit quietly against grey aluminium frames.
Where it parks
Bifold doors stack their own leaves to one side; the grille stack should not fight them.
Rules that apply in England
Grilles inside the glass
A grille fitted inside the glass does not normally need planning permission, because it does not materially change how the building looks from outside. If the building is listed, listed building consent may still be needed.
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.

Patio and bifold door grilles in Dorset: questions
Which towns in Dorset do you cover?
We can arrange work anywhere in Dorset, including Bournemouth, Poole, Weymouth, Christchurch and Bridport, and in other towns across the area.
Will a grille get in the way of my bifold doors?
No. We plan the stack so the bifold leaves and the grille fold to positions that do not clash.
How long does fitting take?
A typical set of patio doors takes half a day once the grille is made.
Can I walk over the grille track?
Yes. Low-profile tracks are a few millimetres high, and recessed tracks sit flush with the floor.
