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

Lifts out completely for a clear window
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
White, black, anthracite or RAL finishes

Fitting in Cheshunt and nearby

Surveys in Cheshunt (EN8) are booked around installer availability. We also cover nearby Waltham Abbey (1 mile), Enfield (4 miles) and Hoddesdon (4 miles).

Hertfordshire mixes the garden cities of Letchworth and Welwyn, post-war new towns such as Stevenage, and historic centres like St Albans.

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

Panel weight

Steel panels are heavy. We size and split them so one person can lift each panel safely.

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.

Rules that apply in England

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 Cheshunt: questions

Do you cover Waltham Abbey as well as Cheshunt?

Yes. As well as Cheshunt, we can arrange surveys in nearby Waltham Abbey, Enfield and Hoddesdon, and elsewhere in Hertfordshire.

How heavy is a removable grille panel?

It depends on size and bar section. We aim to keep each panel light enough for one person to lift, splitting large windows into two panels.

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.

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.
