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.

Fitting in St Austell and nearby
St Austell is about 13 miles from Truro, the main centre for Cornwall. We can survey and fit across the PL25 district and in nearby places such as Bodmin and Truro.
Cornwall's stock is largely granite and slate cottages, terraces and holiday lets, with many seasonal properties left empty for part of the year.
Typical places for this kind of grille include:
- Car park and stairwell openings
- Counters and kiosks
- Shopping centre and arcade units
- Shops with deep heads above the glazing
Things to decide before you order
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.
Head space
The coil box needs height above the opening. If there is no room inside, a retractable grille is usually a better fit.
Rules that apply in England
Grilles inside the glass
A grille fitted inside the glass does not normally need planning permission, because it does not materially change how the building looks from outside. If the building is listed, listed building consent may still be needed.
Grilles across exits in business premises
In workplaces and other non-domestic premises, including the common parts of blocks of flats and HMOs, the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 makes the responsible person keep escape routes and emergency exits available and easy to open while people are present. A grille across an exit should be unlocked and parked open whenever the building is occupied, and covered in the fire risk assessment.

Roller security grilles in St Austell: questions
Which areas near St Austell do you cover?
We can arrange work in St Austell and in nearby Bodmin (9 miles), Truro (13 miles) and Newquay (14 miles). Dates depend on installer availability.
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.
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.
What happens to an electric grille in a power cut?
Powered grilles have a manual override, usually a crank or chain, so they can be raised or lowered without power.
