What to think about first

Locking

Choose keyed pins for everyday use, or padlock hasps if you prefer to use your own padlocks.

Panel weight

Steel panels are heavy. We size and split them so one person can lift each panel safely.

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.

Removable security grilles in Bedford: questions

Can you survey in Bedford and nearby towns?

Yes. Surveys in Bedford, Ampthill, St Neots and elsewhere in Bedfordshire are booked around installer availability.

What is the difference between removable and retractable grilles?

A retractable grille folds to the side but stays in place; a removable grille comes out completely. Retractable suits daily use, removable suits occasional use.

Are removable grilles suitable for listed buildings?

Often, because the only permanent fixings are small brackets. Listed building consent may still be needed, so check with your council first.

How heavy is a removable grille panel?

It depends on size and bar section. We aim to keep each panel light enough for one person to lift, splitting large windows into two panels.
