What is the price of removable security grilles in Central London?

Our guide range for removable security grilles in Central London 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.

What you can specify

Lifts out completely for a clear window
Storage hooks or wall clips available
Brackets that are discreet when the panel is stored
Keyed or padlockable bracket pins
Split panels for large windows so each is manageable
Rigid welded panel in steel

Fitting in Central London and nearby

We can arrange removable security grilles across Central London, the main centre for Greater London, and in nearby towns including Pimlico, Islington and Camden Town.

London's buildings range from Victorian and Edwardian terraces and mansion blocks to post-war estates, with long high streets of ground-floor shops below flats.

This type of grille suits:

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

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.

Locking

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

Planning and safety in 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.

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 Central London: questions

Which areas near Central London do you cover?

We can arrange work in Central London and in nearby Pimlico (1 mile), Islington (2 miles) and Camden Town (2 miles). Dates depend on installer availability.

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.

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.

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.
