How much do removable security grilles cost in Eastleigh?
Budget £354 to £894 including VAT (£295 to £745 plus VAT) per window for removable security grilles in Eastleigh, 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.
Options for removable security grilles in Eastleigh
- Keyed or padlockable bracket pins
- White, black, anthracite or RAL finishes
- Split panels for large windows so each is manageable
- Lifts out completely for a clear window
- Storage hooks or wall clips available
- Internal fixing so brackets cannot be reached from outside
Fitting in Eastleigh and nearby
Eastleigh is about 5 miles from Southampton, the main centre for Hampshire. We can survey and fit across the SO50 district and in nearby places such as Southampton and Winchester.
Hampshire runs from Portsmouth's dense Victorian terraces and Southampton's post-war centre to market towns such as Winchester with large conservation areas.
Typical places for this kind of grille include:
- Holiday homes and second homes
- Listed interiors where tracks are unwelcome
- Temporary or seasonal security
- Offices empty at weekends
Things to decide before you order
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.
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.
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 Eastleigh: questions
Do you cover Southampton as well as Eastleigh?
Yes. As well as Eastleigh, we can arrange surveys in nearby Southampton, Winchester and Totton, and elsewhere in Hampshire.
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.
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.
