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
- Multi-leaf grilles for openings up to several metres
- Stacks positioned to clear handles and curtains
- Optional extra locking points for wide spans
- Locks operable from inside
- Matched to aluminium, uPVC or timber frames
- Low-profile or recessed floor tracks
Fitting in Southampton and nearby

Getting the right patio door grille for your building
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.
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 Southampton: questions
Do you cover Hythe as well as Southampton?
Yes. As well as Southampton, we can arrange surveys in nearby Hythe, Totton and Eastleigh, and elsewhere in Hampshire.
Can the grille be fitted outside the patio doors?
It can, but inside is usual because the grille is protected and the outside of the house stays the same.
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.
