Patio and bifold door grilles in Worthing

Patio and bifold door grilles in Worthing: what will it cost?

As a guide, patio and bifold door grilles in Worthing cost £1,074 to £2,994 including VAT (£895 to £2,495 plus VAT) per set of doors, supplied and fitted. The exact figure depends on size, type, finish and locking, and is confirmed in writing after the free 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.

What the rules say in England

England

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.

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 Worthing: questions

Which areas near Worthing do you cover?

We can arrange work in Worthing and in nearby Portslade (7 miles), Littlehampton (7 miles) and Hove (9 miles). Dates depend on installer availability.

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.

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.
