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
- Mill, anodised or powder-coated finishes
- Manual spring-balanced, crank or electric operation
- Coil box above the opening, internal or external
- Pass doors or wicket gates on request for some wide openings
- Brick-bond or straight link patterns in aluminium or steel
- Suitable for shopping centre units, counters and wide internal openings
Fitting in Radcliffe and nearby
We arrange surveys and fitting in Radcliffe and across the M26 postcode district, as well as in nearby Whitefield (1 mile) and Prestwich (3 miles). Dates depend on installer availability.
Greater Manchester is dominated by red-brick terraces and mill-town centres, with converted mills, modern city-centre flats and large retail parks.
Where roller security grilles are most often used:
- Shops with deep heads above the glazing
- Shopping centre and arcade units
- Wide internal openings and lobbies
- Car park and stairwell openings
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
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.
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 Radcliffe: questions
Can you survey in Radcliffe and nearby towns?
Yes. Surveys in Radcliffe, Whitefield, Prestwich and elsewhere in Greater Manchester are booked around installer availability.
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.
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.
