How much should I budget for roller security grilles in Hayes?
Most roller security grilles in Hayes fall within £1,495 to £4,995 plus VAT (£1,794 to £5,994 inc VAT) per opening for supply and fitting. We confirm a fixed price in writing after a free survey, before anything is ordered.
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
- Suitable for shopping centre units, counters and wide internal openings
- Guide channels fixed to the face or into the reveal
- Manual spring-balanced, crank or electric operation
- Safety edges, manual override and anti-drop devices on powered grilles
- Coil box above the opening, internal or external

What to think about first
Powered door safety
Electric grilles are powered doors, so they need the right safety devices, a risk assessment and regular maintenance.
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.
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 Hayes: questions
Can you survey in Hayes and nearby towns?
Yes. Surveys in Hayes, Southall, Heston and elsewhere in Greater London are booked around 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.
