Fitting in Leyland and nearby

Leyland is about 5 miles from Preston, the main centre for Lancashire. We can survey and fit across the PR25 district and in nearby places such as Chorley and Preston.

Lancashire is known for stone and red-brick terraces in its mill towns, Victorian seaside resorts such as Blackpool, and historic Lancaster.

Where roller security grilles are most often used:

Car park and stairwell openings
Counters and kiosks
Wide internal openings and lobbies
Shops with deep heads above the glazing

What to think about first

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.

Inside or outside

Inside a shopping centre or behind glazing the grille is protected. External roller grilles normally need planning permission.

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.

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 Leyland: questions

Do you cover Chorley as well as Leyland?

Yes. As well as Leyland, we can arrange surveys in nearby Chorley, Preston and Blackburn, and elsewhere in Lancashire.

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.

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.
