How much should I budget for retractable security grilles in Newcastle-under-Lyme?

Our guide range for retractable security grilles in Newcastle-under-Lyme is £414 to £1,554 including VAT (£345 to £1,295 plus VAT) per opening, including fitting. The survey is free for new installations and your fixed price follows in writing.

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

  • Single, double or multi-leaf layouts for wide openings
  • Quick-release internal handle available where a window must stay usable for escape
  • Folds into a stack typically around a sixth of the opening width
  • White, black and anthracite as standard, other RAL colours to order
  • Top-hung or bottom-running versions to suit the floor or sill
  • Key-operated lock box on the leading edge, with optional extra locking points

Staffordshire mixes the Potteries' Victorian terraces and former works buildings with market towns such as Stafford, Lichfield and Burton.

  • Shop windows and glazed shop entrances
  • Back doors, French doors and patio doors
  • Office receptions and glazed partitions
  • Stockrooms and cash offices

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.

Inside or outside the glass

Inside is the norm: it is protected from weather, keeps the street view unchanged and usually avoids planning issues. Outside fitting suits recessed doorways and openings with no internal depth.

Consents and safety: 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.

Retractable security grilles in Newcastle-under-Lyme: questions

Can you survey in Newcastle-under-Lyme and nearby towns?

Yes. Surveys in Newcastle-under-Lyme, Stoke-on-Trent, Longton and elsewhere in Staffordshire are booked around installer availability.

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.

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.

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.
