How much do removable security grilles cost in Sevenoaks?
As a guide, removable security grilles in Sevenoaks cost £354 to £894 including VAT (£295 to £745 plus VAT) per window, supplied and fitted. The exact figure depends on size, type, finish and locking, and is confirmed in writing after the free 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 Sevenoaks
- Lifts out completely for a clear window
- Brackets that are discreet when the panel is stored
- Keyed or padlockable bracket pins
- Split panels for large windows so each is manageable
- Storage hooks or wall clips available

Fitting in Sevenoaks and nearby
Sevenoaks is about 14 miles from Maidstone, the main centre for Kent. We can survey and fit across the TN13 district and in nearby places such as Tonbridge and Swanley.
Kent ranges from Medway's Victorian terraces and Thanet's seaside towns to listed medieval centres such as Canterbury and Rochester.
Typical places for this kind of grille include:
- Offices empty at weekends
- Temporary or seasonal security
- Listed interiors where tracks are unwelcome
- Windows needed for cleaning or access
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.
Where it is stored
Plan where the panel lives when it is out, because a grille propped behind a door is easily damaged.
Rules that apply in England
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.
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 Sevenoaks: questions
Do you cover Tonbridge as well as Sevenoaks?
Yes. As well as Sevenoaks, we can arrange surveys in nearby Tonbridge, Swanley and Tunbridge Wells, and elsewhere in Kent.
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.
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.
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.
