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
- Single, double or multi-leaf layouts for wide openings
- Folds into a stack typically around a sixth of the opening width
- White, black and anthracite as standard, other RAL colours to order
- Vertical bars with diagonal scissor links that lock rigid when closed
- Key-operated lock box on the leading edge, with optional extra locking points
- Quick-release internal handle available where a window must stay usable for escape

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 Wales
Listed buildings and conservation areas
Listed buildings in Wales need listed building consent for works affecting their character, decided by the local planning authority with Cadw's involvement where required. Conservation areas bring extra scrutiny of external changes. Check with the council before ordering.
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 Gorseinon: questions
Can you survey in Gorseinon and nearby towns?
Yes. Surveys in Gorseinon, Llanelli, Swansea and elsewhere in West Glamorgan are booked around installer availability.
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.
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.
