A retractable security grille is a steel or aluminium lattice of vertical bars joined by scissor links that runs in a top and bottom track. Drawn across a window or door it forms a locked barrier; slid back, it folds into a narrow stack at the side so the opening is fully usable.

Choices you can make

Quick-release internal handle available where a window must stay usable for escape
Top-hung or bottom-running versions to suit the floor or sill
Vertical bars with diagonal scissor links that lock rigid when closed
Key-operated lock box on the leading edge, with optional extra locking points
Folds into a stack typically around a sixth of the opening width
Single, double or multi-leaf layouts for wide openings

Shop windows and glazed shop entrances

Stockrooms and cash offices
Back doors, French doors and patio doors

What to think about first

Which side it folds to

The stack needs a clear wall or reveal to park against. We check curtains, handles, radiators and light switches before the grille is ordered.

Security level

Domestic grilles suit most homes. Shops, pharmacies and high-value stock may justify heavier sections or a third-party certified product.

Consents and safety: Wales

Wales

Bedroom and escape windows

Wales has its own Approved Documents under the Building Regulations. Approved Document B for Wales sets out escape window provisions for dwellings broadly in line with England's, including minimum opening sizes. We only fit grilles over escape windows with a keyless internal release.

Grilles inside the glass

A grille fitted inside the glass does not normally need planning permission in Wales, as it does not materially change the outside of the building. If the building is listed, listed building consent may still be needed.

Retractable security grilles in Rhyl: questions

Do you cover Prestatyn as well as Rhyl?

Yes. As well as Rhyl, we can arrange surveys in nearby Prestatyn, Colwyn Bay and Llandudno, and elsewhere in Clwyd.

Do retractable grilles need a bottom track?

Most do, because the bottom track stops the grille being pushed out of line. On doorways a low or recessed track can be used to reduce the trip hazard, and some top-hung designs work without one on smaller openings.

Can a retractable grille be fitted inside the window?

Yes, and that is how most are fitted. The tracks fix into the window reveal or to a timber or steel subframe, so the grille sits between the glass and the room.

Will a grille stop me opening my windows?

No. An internal grille sits inside the reveal, so you can open the window as normal when the grille is folded back, and usually with it closed if there is enough depth between grille and glass.
