Removable security grilles in Coventry

Removable security grilles in Coventry: what will it cost?

As a guide, removable security grilles in Coventry 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.

What goes into a removable grille

Split panels for large windows so each is manageable
Internal fixing so brackets cannot be reached from outside
Brackets that are discreet when the panel is stored
White, black, anthracite or RAL finishes
Keyed or padlockable bracket pins
Rigid welded panel in steel

Getting the right removable grille for your building

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.

What the rules say in England

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 Coventry: questions

Can you survey in Coventry and nearby towns?

Yes. Surveys in Coventry, Kenilworth, Bedworth and elsewhere in West Midlands are booked around 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 removable grilles be locked from outside?

They are designed to be locked and removed from inside only, so nobody outside can lift them out.

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.
