How much should I budget for roller security grilles in Cirencester?
Our guide range for roller security grilles in Cirencester 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.
What you can specify
- Pass doors or wicket gates on request for some wide openings
- Manual spring-balanced, crank or electric operation
- Guide channels fixed to the face or into the reveal
- Coil box above the opening, internal or external
- Mill, anodised or powder-coated finishes
- Brick-bond or straight link patterns in aluminium or steel

Gloucestershire mixes Cotswold stone towns and villages, Regency terraces in Cheltenham, and the commercial and retail centres of Gloucester and Yate.
Where roller security grilles are most often used:
- Counters and kiosks
- Shopping centre and arcade units
- Shops with deep heads above the glazing
- Wide internal openings and lobbies
What to think about first
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.
Consents and safety: England
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.
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.

Roller security grilles in Cirencester: questions
Can you survey in Cirencester and nearby towns?
Yes. Surveys in Cirencester, Stroud, Cheltenham and elsewhere in Gloucestershire are booked around installer availability.
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.
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.
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.
