How much should I budget for removable security grilles in Gloucestershire?
Our guide range for removable security grilles in Gloucestershire is £354 to £894 including VAT (£295 to £745 plus VAT) per window, including fitting. The survey is free for new installations and your fixed price follows in writing.
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
- Split panels for large windows so each is manageable
- Rigid welded panel in steel
- Keyed or padlockable bracket pins
- White, black, anthracite or RAL finishes
- Brackets that are discreet when the panel is stored
- Storage hooks or wall clips available

What to think about first
Where it is stored
Plan where the panel lives when it is out, because a grille propped behind a door is easily damaged.
Locking
Choose keyed pins for everyday use, or padlock hasps if you prefer to use your own padlocks.
Consents and safety: England
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.
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.

Removable security grilles in Gloucestershire: questions
Which towns in Gloucestershire do you cover?
We can arrange work anywhere in Gloucestershire, including Gloucester, Cheltenham, Stroud, Mangotsfield and Yate, and in other towns across the area.
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.
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.
