What is the price of removable security grilles in Melton Mowbray?

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 you can specify

Rigid welded panel in steel
White, black, anthracite or RAL finishes
Split panels for large windows so each is manageable
Brackets that are discreet when the panel is stored
Lifts out completely for a clear window
Keyed or padlockable bracket pins

This type of grille suits:

Windows needed for cleaning or access
Listed interiors where tracks are unwelcome
Temporary or seasonal security
Holiday homes and second homes

Questions we will ask at the survey

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.

Planning and safety 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.

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.

Removable security grilles in Melton Mowbray: questions

Can you survey in Melton Mowbray and nearby towns?

Yes. Surveys in Melton Mowbray, Oakham, Loughborough and elsewhere in Leicestershire are booked around installer availability.

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 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.
