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 you can specify

Brackets that are discreet when the panel is stored
Split panels for large windows so each is manageable
Storage hooks or wall clips available
Internal fixing so brackets cannot be reached from outside
Keyed or padlockable bracket pins
Lifts out completely for a clear window

Edinburgh's Old and New Towns are a World Heritage Site full of listed tenements and shops, surrounded by suburbs and the Lothians' towns.

Holiday homes and second homes
Temporary or seasonal security
Windows needed for cleaning or access
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.

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.

Rules that apply in Scotland

Scotland

Listed buildings and conservation areas

Listed buildings in Scotland need listed building consent for works affecting their character, decided by the council, with Historic Environment Scotland consulted on some cases. Conservation areas bring extra scrutiny of external changes. Check with the council before ordering.

Grilles inside the glass

A grille fitted inside the glass does not normally need planning permission in Scotland, as it does not materially change the outside of the building. If the building is listed, listed building consent may still be needed.

Removable security grilles in Musselburgh: questions

Which areas near Musselburgh do you cover?

We can arrange work in Musselburgh and in nearby Dalkeith (3 miles), Edinburgh (6 miles) and Penicuik (10 miles). Dates depend on installer availability.

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.

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.
