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.

- Galvanised or powder-coated steel, or aluminium for lighter duty

Things to decide before you order
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.
Bottom track or no bottom track
A bottom track gives the most rigid grille but can be a trip point across a doorway. Low-profile and removable floor tracks are available for doors.
Rules that apply in Northern Ireland
Grilles inside the glass
A grille fitted inside the glass does not normally need planning permission in Northern Ireland, as it does not materially change the outside of the building. If the building is listed, listed building consent may still be needed.
Listed buildings and conservation areas
Listed buildings in Northern Ireland need listed building consent for works affecting their character, with the council deciding and the Department for Communities' Historic Environment Division advising. Conservation areas bring extra scrutiny of external changes.

Retractable security grilles in County Tyrone: questions
Which towns in County Tyrone do you cover?
We can arrange work anywhere in County Tyrone, including Cookstown, Dungannon, Omagh and Strabane.
How long does a retractable grille take to fit?
Most single windows or doors are fitted in an hour or two once the made-to-measure grille arrives. A shopfront or several openings may take a day.
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.
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.
