What is the price of removable security grilles in Folkestone?

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 Folkestone
- Internal fixing so brackets cannot be reached from outside
- White, black, anthracite or RAL finishes
- Brackets that are discreet when the panel is stored
- Keyed or padlockable bracket pins
- Lifts out completely for a clear window
- Storage hooks or wall clips available
Fitting in Folkestone and nearby

- Temporary or seasonal security
- Offices empty at weekends
Questions we will ask at the survey
Locking
Choose keyed pins for everyday use, or padlock hasps if you prefer to use your own padlocks.
Panel weight
Steel panels are heavy. We size and split them so one person can lift each panel safely.
Planning and safety in England
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.
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 Folkestone: questions
Which areas near Folkestone do you cover?
We can arrange work in Folkestone and in nearby Dover (7 miles), Ashford (13 miles) and Deal (14 miles). Dates depend on installer availability.
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.
