What is the price of roller security grilles in Chelmsford?
Our guide range for roller security grilles in Chelmsford is £1,495 to £4,995 plus VAT (£1,794 to £5,994 inc VAT) per opening, including fitting. The survey is free for new installations and your fixed price follows in writing.
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
- Pass doors or wicket gates on request for some wide openings
- Guide channels fixed to the face or into the reveal
- Mill, anodised or powder-coated finishes
- Coil box above the opening, internal or external
- Safety edges, manual override and anti-drop devices on powered grilles
- Suitable for shopping centre units, counters and wide internal openings

Questions we will ask at the survey
Powered door safety
Electric grilles are powered doors, so they need the right safety devices, a risk assessment and regular maintenance.
Inside or outside
Inside a shopping centre or behind glazing the grille is protected. External roller grilles normally need planning permission.
Planning and safety 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.
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 Chelmsford: questions
Which areas near Chelmsford do you cover?
We can arrange work in Chelmsford and in nearby Billericay (8 miles), Witham (9 miles) and Maldon (9 miles). Dates depend on 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.
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.
