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
- Manual spring-balanced, crank or electric operation
- Mill, anodised or powder-coated finishes
- Coil box above the opening, internal or external
- Pass doors or wicket gates on request for some wide openings
- Guide channels fixed to the face or into the reveal
- Suitable for shopping centre units, counters and wide internal openings

What to think about first
Head space
The coil box needs height above the opening. If there is no room inside, a retractable grille is usually a better fit.
Powered door safety
Electric grilles are powered doors, so they need the right safety devices, a risk assessment and regular maintenance.
Consents and safety: England
Electric roller grilles
Electric grilles need a suitable supply wired to BS 7671. In homes, some electrical work is notifiable under Part P of the Building Regulations. Powered grilles should have working safety devices and regular maintenance.
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.

Roller security grilles in Bodmin: questions
Can you survey in Bodmin and nearby towns?
Yes. Surveys in Bodmin, St Austell, Newquay and elsewhere in Cornwall are booked around installer availability.
Can a roller grille be fitted inside a shop window?
Yes, where there is enough clear height above the window for the coil and guides. It is a neat option because nothing is left at the sides.
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.
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.
