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.

Getting the right patio door grille for your building
Usage
If you open the doors every day, ask for a lighter-action grille with smooth runners.
Track
A low-profile track keeps the threshold easy to walk over. Recessed tracks need a little floor work.
What the rules say 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 Purley: questions
Can you survey in Purley and nearby towns?
Yes. Surveys in Purley, Coulsdon, South Croydon and elsewhere in Greater London are booked around installer availability.
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.
Can I walk over the grille track?
Yes. Low-profile tracks are a few millimetres high, and recessed tracks sit flush with the floor.
How long does fitting take?
A typical set of patio doors takes half a day once the grille is made.
