A removable security grille is a rigid steel panel that sits in locked brackets fixed to the window reveal. Unlocked, it lifts out entirely, leaving the window clear for cleaning, views or escape; locked in, it is as strong as a fixed grille.

Choices you can make

Storage hooks or wall clips available
Brackets that are discreet when the panel is stored
Internal fixing so brackets cannot be reached from outside
Rigid welded panel in steel
Keyed or padlockable bracket pins
Split panels for large windows so each is manageable

Cornwall's stock is largely granite and slate cottages, terraces and holiday lets, with many seasonal properties left empty for part of the year.

Typical places for this kind of grille include:

Windows needed for cleaning or access
Holiday homes and second homes
Temporary or seasonal security
Listed interiors where tracks are unwelcome

Things to decide before you order

Where it is stored

Plan where the panel lives when it is out, because a grille propped behind a door is easily damaged.

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.

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.

Removable security grilles in Penzance: questions

Do you cover Camborne as well as Penzance?

Yes. As well as Penzance, we can arrange surveys in nearby Camborne, Redruth and Falmouth, and elsewhere in Cornwall.

Can I fit the panel myself after it is installed?

Yes. Once the brackets are fitted, lifting the panel in and locking it is a simple job.

Can removable grilles be locked from outside?

They are designed to be locked and removed from inside only, so nobody outside can lift them out.

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.
