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.

Fitting in Hampton and nearby

Hampton is about 12 miles from Central London, the main centre for Greater London. We can survey and fit across the TW12 district and in nearby places such as Hanworth and Sunbury-on-Thames.

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.

Common openings for removable security grilles:

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

Getting the right removable grille for your building

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.

Panel weight

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

What the rules say 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.

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 Hampton: questions

Do you cover Hanworth as well as Hampton?

Yes. As well as Hampton, we can arrange surveys in nearby Hanworth, Sunbury-on-Thames and Walton-on-Thames, and elsewhere in Greater London.

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.

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 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.
