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.

- White, black, anthracite or RAL finishes
- Lifts out completely for a clear window
- Keyed or padlockable bracket pins
- Split panels for large windows so each is manageable

Questions we will ask at the survey
Locking
Choose keyed pins for everyday use, or padlock hasps if you prefer to use your own padlocks.
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.
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.
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.

Removable security grilles in Ashton-in-Makerfield: questions
Do you cover Golborne as well as Ashton-in-Makerfield?
Yes. As well as Ashton-in-Makerfield, we can arrange surveys in nearby Golborne, Newton-le-Willows and St Helens, and elsewhere in Greater Manchester.
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.
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.
