How much do roller security grilles cost in Clacton-on-Sea?

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.

- Coil box above the opening, internal or external
- Suitable for shopping centre units, counters and wide internal openings
- Mill, anodised or powder-coated finishes

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 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.
External grilles and planning
External grilles and shutters on shops and other commercial buildings normally need planning permission from the local council because they change the building's appearance. Many councils' shopfront guides favour internal, open-lattice grilles, particularly in conservation areas.

Roller security grilles in Clacton-on-Sea: questions
Which areas near Clacton-on-Sea do you cover?
We can arrange work in Clacton-on-Sea and in nearby Harwich (12 miles), Colchester (13 miles) and Felixstowe (15 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.
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.
