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.

Fitting in Leamington Spa and nearby

Leamington Spa is about 17 miles from Nuneaton, the main centre for Warwickshire. We can survey and fit across the CV32 district and in nearby places such as Warwick and Kenilworth.

Warwickshire mixes Regency Leamington Spa, historic Warwick and Stratford-upon-Avon, and the terraces and retail parks of Nuneaton and Rugby.

This type of grille suits:

Ground-floor windows of homes and flats
Back doors, French doors and patio doors
Stockrooms and cash offices
Office receptions and glazed partitions

Questions we will ask at the survey

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.

Planning and safety in 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.

External grilles and planning

External grilles and shutters on shops and other commercial buildings normally need planning permission from the local council because they change the building's appearance. Many councils' shopfront guides favour internal, open-lattice grilles, particularly in conservation areas.

Retractable security grilles in Leamington Spa: questions

Do you cover Warwick as well as Leamington Spa?

Yes. As well as Leamington Spa, we can arrange surveys in nearby Warwick, Kenilworth and Coventry, and elsewhere in Warwickshire.

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.

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.
