Removable security grilles in Devon

How much do removable security grilles cost in Devon?

Budget £354 to £894 including VAT (£295 to £745 plus VAT) per window for removable security grilles in Devon, supplied and fitted. Size, number of leaves, colour and access all move the price, which is fixed in writing after the survey.

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.

What goes into a removable grille

Brackets that are discreet when the panel is stored
White, black, anthracite or RAL finishes
Lifts out completely for a clear window
Keyed or padlockable bracket pins
Storage hooks or wall clips available
Split panels for large windows so each is manageable

Things to decide before you order

Panel weight

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

Where it is stored

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

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.

Removable security grilles in Devon: questions

Which towns in Devon do you cover?

We can arrange work anywhere in Devon, including Plymouth, Exeter, Paignton, Torquay and Newton Abbot, and in other towns across the area.

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.

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.

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.
