What is the price of removable security grilles in Brixton?
Budget £354 to £894 including VAT (£295 to £745 plus VAT) per window for removable security grilles in Brixton, supplied and fitted. Size, number of leaves, colour and access all move the price, which is fixed in writing after the survey.
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 goes into a removable grille
- Split panels for large windows so each is manageable
- Internal fixing so brackets cannot be reached from outside
- White, black, anthracite or RAL finishes
- Rigid welded panel in steel
- Lifts out completely for a clear window
- Keyed or padlockable bracket pins
Fitting in Brixton and nearby

This type of grille suits:
- Windows needed for cleaning or access
- Holiday homes and second homes
- Temporary or seasonal security
- Offices empty at weekends
Questions we will ask at the survey
Where it is stored
Plan where the panel lives when it is out, because a grille propped behind a door is easily damaged.
Panel weight
Steel panels are heavy. We size and split them so one person can lift each panel safely.
Planning and safety in 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.
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.

Removable security grilles in Brixton: questions
Can you survey in Brixton and nearby towns?
Yes. Surveys in Brixton, Peckham, Pimlico and elsewhere in Greater London are booked around installer availability.
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 I fit the panel myself after it is installed?
Yes. Once the brackets are fitted, lifting the panel in and locking it is a simple job.
