How much should I budget for removable security grilles in Hanworth?
As a guide, removable security grilles in Hanworth cost £354 to £894 including VAT (£295 to £745 plus VAT) per window, supplied and fitted. The exact figure depends on size, type, finish and locking, and is confirmed in writing after the free 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.
Choices you can make
- Internal fixing so brackets cannot be reached from outside
- White, black, anthracite or RAL finishes
- Split panels for large windows so each is manageable
- Storage hooks or wall clips available
- Keyed or padlockable bracket pins
- Rigid welded panel in steel

- Offices empty at weekends

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
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 Hanworth: questions
Do you cover Hampton as well as Hanworth?
Yes. As well as Hanworth, we can arrange surveys in nearby Hampton, Feltham and Sunbury-on-Thames, and elsewhere in Greater London.
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.
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.
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.
