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.
What goes into a patio door grille
- Locks operable from inside
- Multi-leaf grilles for openings up to several metres
- Matched to aluminium, uPVC or timber frames
- Works with sliding, lift-and-slide and bifold doors
- Optional extra locking points for wide spans
- Stacks positioned to clear handles and curtains

Things to decide before you order
Track
A low-profile track keeps the threshold easy to walk over. Recessed tracks need a little floor work.
Where it parks
Bifold doors stack their own leaves to one side; the grille stack should not fight them.
Rules that apply in 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.
Bedroom and escape windows
Approved Document B (fire safety) expects many habitable rooms in houses, especially first-floor rooms, to have an emergency escape window with an unobstructed opening of at least 0.33 m², at least 450 mm high and 450 mm wide, with the bottom of the opening no more than 1,100 mm above the floor. We only fit grilles over escape windows with a release that opens from inside without a key.

Patio and bifold door grilles in Croydon: questions
Can you survey in Croydon and nearby towns?
Yes. Surveys in Croydon, South Croydon, Wallington and elsewhere in Greater London are booked around installer availability.
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.
Can I walk over the grille track?
Yes. Low-profile tracks are a few millimetres high, and recessed tracks sit flush with the floor.
Do patio grilles block the view?
When open, only a slim stack at each side. When closed, the lattice is open enough to see the garden clearly.
