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 you can specify
- Stacks positioned to clear handles and curtains
- White, black, anthracite or RAL
- Multi-leaf grilles for openings up to several metres
- Locks operable from inside
- Works with sliding, lift-and-slide and bifold doors
- Low-profile or recessed floor tracks
Fitting in Borehamwood and nearby
We arrange surveys and fitting in Borehamwood and across the WD6 postcode district, as well as in nearby Barnet (3 miles) and Bushey (4 miles). Dates depend on installer availability.
Hertfordshire mixes the garden cities of Letchworth and Welwyn, post-war new towns such as Stevenage, and historic centres like St Albans.
This type of grille suits:
- Balcony doors in flats
- Bifold doors
- Orangeries
- Garden room and extension openings
Questions we will ask at the survey
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.
Planning and safety 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 Borehamwood: questions
Do you cover Barnet as well as Borehamwood?
Yes. As well as Borehamwood, we can arrange surveys in nearby Barnet, Bushey and Potters Bar, and elsewhere in Hertfordshire.
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.
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.
