Removable security grilles in Paignton

What is the price of removable security grilles in Paignton?

Budget £354 to £894 including VAT (£295 to £745 plus VAT) per window for removable security grilles in Paignton, 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.

Devon runs from post-war Plymouth and Exeter city centres to Victorian seaside terraces in Torbay and thatched and stone cottages inland.

This type of grille suits:

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

Questions we will ask at the survey

Panel weight

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

Escape

A removable panel is not a quick-release escape grille. Upstairs and bedroom windows needed for escape suit a quick-release retractable grille better.

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 Paignton: questions

Do you cover Torquay as well as Paignton?

Yes. As well as Paignton, we can arrange surveys in nearby Torquay, Newton Abbot and Exmouth, and elsewhere in Devon.

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.

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.

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.
