How much do retractable security grilles cost in Walton-on-Thames?

Our guide range for retractable security grilles in Walton-on-Thames 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.

What you can specify

  • Quick-release internal handle available where a window must stay usable for escape
  • Galvanised or powder-coated steel, or aluminium for lighter duty
  • Folds into a stack typically around a sixth of the opening width
  • Single, double or multi-leaf layouts for wide openings
  • White, black and anthracite as standard, other RAL colours to order
  • Vertical bars with diagonal scissor links that lock rigid when closed

Surrey is mostly suburban and commuter housing, from interwar semis to large detached homes, with busy town centres such as Guildford and Woking.

Typical places for this kind of grille include:

  • Office receptions and glazed partitions
  • Ground-floor windows of homes and flats
  • Stockrooms and cash offices
  • Shop windows and glazed shop entrances

Things to decide before you order

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.

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.

Rules that apply 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.

Retractable security grilles in Walton-on-Thames: questions

Do you cover Sunbury-on-Thames as well as Walton-on-Thames?

Yes. As well as Walton-on-Thames, we can arrange surveys in nearby Sunbury-on-Thames, Esher and Hampton, and elsewhere in Surrey.

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.
