Removable security grilles in Heywood

What is the price of removable security grilles in Heywood?

Our guide range for removable security grilles in Heywood 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 goes into a removable grille

White, black, anthracite or RAL finishes
Brackets that are discreet when the panel is stored
Internal fixing so brackets cannot be reached from outside
Lifts out completely for a clear window
Storage hooks or wall clips available
Rigid welded panel in steel

Greater Manchester is dominated by red-brick terraces and mill-town centres, with converted mills, modern city-centre flats and large retail parks.

This type of grille suits:

Offices empty at weekends
Holiday homes and second homes
Temporary or seasonal security
Listed interiors where tracks are unwelcome

Questions we will ask at the survey

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.

Locking

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

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.

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.

Removable security grilles in Heywood: questions

Do you cover Middleton as well as Heywood?

Yes. As well as Heywood, we can arrange surveys in nearby Middleton, Rochdale and Bury, 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 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.

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.
