Removable security grilles in Gloucester

What is the price of removable security grilles in Gloucester?

Most removable security grilles in Gloucester fall within £354 to £894 including VAT (£295 to £745 plus VAT) per window for supply and fitting. We confirm a fixed price in writing after a free survey, before anything is ordered.

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

Fitting in Gloucester and nearby

Surveys in Gloucester (GL1) are booked around installer availability, as they are in nearby Cheltenham (7 miles) and Stroud (8 miles).

Gloucestershire mixes Cotswold stone towns and villages, Regency terraces in Cheltenham, and the commercial and retail centres of Gloucester and Yate.

This type of grille suits:

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

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

England

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.

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 Gloucester: questions

Can you survey in Gloucester and nearby towns?

Yes. Surveys in Gloucester, Cheltenham, Stroud and elsewhere in Gloucestershire are booked around installer availability.

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.
