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
- Suitable for shopping centre units, counters and wide internal openings
- Guide channels fixed to the face or into the reveal
- Coil box above the opening, internal or external
- Manual spring-balanced, crank or electric operation
- Pass doors or wicket gates on request for some wide openings
- Mill, anodised or powder-coated finishes

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:
- Shops with deep heads above the glazing
- Counters and kiosks
- Wide internal openings and lobbies
- Shopping centre and arcade units
What to think about first
Head space
The coil box needs height above the opening. If there is no room inside, a retractable grille is usually a better fit.
Inside or outside
Inside a shopping centre or behind glazing the grille is protected. External roller grilles normally need planning permission.
Consents and safety: England
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.
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 Morecambe: questions
Do you cover Lancaster as well as Morecambe?
Yes. As well as Morecambe, we can arrange surveys in nearby Lancaster, Fleetwood and Thornton-Cleveleys, and elsewhere in Lancashire.
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.
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.
