Removable security grilles in Bordon: what will it cost?

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
- 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
Fitting in Bordon and nearby

Common openings for removable security grilles:
- Offices empty at weekends
- Listed interiors where tracks are unwelcome
- Holiday homes and second homes
- Windows needed for cleaning or access
Getting the right removable grille for your building
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.
What the rules say 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.
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 Bordon: questions
Can you survey in Bordon and nearby towns?
Yes. Surveys in Bordon, Farnham, Aldershot and elsewhere in Hampshire 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.
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.
