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.

- Rigid welded panel in steel
- Keyed or padlockable bracket pins

Fitting in Shaftesbury and nearby

Dorset combines large suburban areas around Bournemouth and Poole with stone-built market towns and conservation-area high streets such as Dorchester and Bridport.
This type of grille suits:
- Windows needed for cleaning or access
- Listed interiors where tracks are unwelcome
- Offices empty at weekends
- 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.
Planning and safety in England
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 Shaftesbury: questions
Which areas near Shaftesbury do you cover?
We can arrange work in Shaftesbury and in nearby Warminster (14 miles), Frome (16 miles) and Salisbury (18 miles). Dates depend on installer availability.
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.
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.
