Removable security grilles in Greenock

Removable security grilles in Greenock: what will it cost?

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

White, black, anthracite or RAL finishes
Rigid welded panel in steel
Lifts out completely for a clear window
Internal fixing so brackets cannot be reached from outside
Storage hooks or wall clips available

Getting the right removable grille for your building

Locking

Choose keyed pins for everyday use, or padlock hasps if you prefer to use your own padlocks.

Panel weight

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

What the rules say in Scotland

Scotland

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.

Bedroom and escape windows

In Scotland, escape from homes is covered by the Building Standards technical handbooks (section 2, fire). Where a room relies on a window for escape, nothing fitted over it should stop it being used. We only fit grilles over escape windows with a keyless internal release.

Removable security grilles in Greenock: questions

Can you survey in Greenock and nearby towns?

Yes. Surveys in Greenock, Helensburgh, Dunoon and elsewhere in Glasgow and Clyde are booked around 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.

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.
