How much do removable security grilles cost in Oldham?
Budget £354 to £894 including VAT (£295 to £745 plus VAT) per window for removable security grilles in Oldham, 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.
Specification at a glance
- Rigid welded panel in steel
- Keyed or padlockable bracket pins
- Split panels for large windows so each is manageable
- Internal fixing so brackets cannot be reached from outside
- Storage hooks or wall clips available
- Brackets that are discreet when the panel is stored
Fitting in Oldham and nearby
Whether you are in central Oldham or at the edge of the OL1 district, we can arrange a survey. Nearby Chadderton and Royton are covered too.
Greater Manchester is dominated by red-brick terraces and mill-town centres, with converted mills, modern city-centre flats and large retail parks.
Typical places for this kind of grille include:
- Windows needed for cleaning or access
- Holiday homes and second homes
- Temporary or seasonal security
- Listed interiors where tracks are unwelcome
Things to decide before you order
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.
Rules that apply 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 Oldham: questions
Can you survey in Oldham and nearby towns?
Yes. Surveys in Oldham, Chadderton, Royton and elsewhere in Greater Manchester are booked around installer availability.
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.
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.
