How much do roller security grilles cost in Kendal?

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 Kendal and nearby

Cumbria mixes stone-built houses in its market towns and Lake District villages with industrial-era terraces in Barrow, Workington and Whitehaven.

Typical places for this kind of grille include:

Car park and stairwell openings
Wide internal openings and lobbies
Shopping centre and arcade units
Shops with deep heads above the glazing

Things to decide before you order

Inside or outside

Inside a shopping centre or behind glazing the grille is protected. External roller grilles normally need planning permission.

Head space

The coil box needs height above the opening. If there is no room inside, a retractable grille is usually a better fit.

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.

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.

Roller security grilles in Kendal: questions

Do you cover Morecambe as well as Kendal?

Yes. As well as Kendal, we can arrange surveys in nearby Morecambe, Lancaster and Penrith, and elsewhere in Cumbria.

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.

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.

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.
