A roller security grille is a curtain of linked aluminium or steel tubes that coils into a box above the opening. Lowered, it gives an open-mesh barrier you can see through; raised, it leaves the full width clear with nothing parked at the sides.
Choices you can make
- Coil box above the opening, internal or external
- Suitable for shopping centre units, counters and wide internal openings
- Mill, anodised or powder-coated finishes
- Pass doors or wicket gates on request for some wide openings
- Safety edges, manual override and anti-drop devices on powered grilles
- Guide channels fixed to the face or into the reveal

What to think about first
Manual or electric
Small grilles work well by hand. Anything large, high or used several times a day is easier and safer with a motor.
Inside or outside
Inside a shopping centre or behind glazing the grille is protected. External roller grilles normally need planning permission.
Consents and safety: Wales
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.
Grilles across exits in business premises
The Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 applies in Wales, including to the common parts of blocks of flats and HMOs. The responsible person must keep escape routes and exits available and easy to open while people are present, so a grille across an exit should be open whenever the premises are occupied.

Roller security grilles in Wrexham: questions
Can you survey in Wrexham and nearby towns?
Yes. Surveys in Wrexham, Rhosllanerchrugog, Buckley and elsewhere in Clwyd are booked around installer availability.
Do electric roller grilles need servicing?
Yes. Powered grilles should be inspected and maintained regularly, including the motor, safety devices and manual override, so they stay safe to use.
Do roller grilles need planning permission?
Internal roller grilles generally do not. External ones normally do, and councils often prefer open-mesh grilles to solid shutters where something external is allowed.
Is a roller grille the same as a roller shutter?
No. A shutter uses solid or perforated slats; a grille uses an open mesh of tubes and links, so you can see through it and air can pass.
