Removable security grilles in Holloway: what will it cost?
Budget £354 to £894 including VAT (£295 to £745 plus VAT) per window for removable security grilles in Holloway, 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.
Choices you can make
- White, black, anthracite or RAL finishes
- Split panels for large windows so each is manageable
- Storage hooks or wall clips available
- Rigid welded panel in steel
- Keyed or padlockable bracket pins
- Internal fixing so brackets cannot be reached from outside

Getting the right removable grille for your building
Locking
Choose keyed pins for everyday use, or padlock hasps if you prefer to use your own padlocks.
Where it is stored
Plan where the panel lives when it is out, because a grille propped behind a door is easily damaged.
What the rules say 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.
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 Holloway: questions
Can you survey in Holloway and nearby towns?
Yes. Surveys in Holloway, Highbury, Archway and elsewhere in Greater London 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.
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.
