Roller security grilles in Liverpool

How much do roller security grilles cost in Liverpool?

Budget £1,495 to £4,995 plus VAT (£1,794 to £5,994 inc VAT) per opening for roller security grilles in Liverpool, supplied and fitted. Size, number of leaves, colour and access all move the price, which is fixed in writing after the survey.

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 goes into a roller grille

Manual spring-balanced, crank or electric operation
Guide channels fixed to the face or into the reveal
Mill, anodised or powder-coated finishes
Safety edges, manual override and anti-drop devices on powered grilles
Coil box above the opening, internal or external
Brick-bond or straight link patterns in aluminium or steel

Fitting in Liverpool and nearby

Surveys in Liverpool (L1) are booked around installer availability, as they are in nearby Birkenhead (2 miles) and Wallasey (4 miles).

Merseyside has Liverpool's Georgian quarter and Victorian terraces, the Wirral's suburbs, and large high-street and dockside commercial areas.

Typical places for this kind of grille include:

Shopping centre and arcade units
Wide internal openings and lobbies
Shops with deep heads above the glazing
Counters and kiosks

Things to decide before you order

Head space

The coil box needs height above the opening. If there is no room inside, a retractable grille is usually a better fit.

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.

Rules that apply in England

Grilles across exits in business premises

In workplaces and other non-domestic premises, including the common parts of blocks of flats and HMOs, the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 makes the responsible person keep escape routes and emergency exits available and easy to open while people are present. A grille across an exit should be unlocked and parked open whenever the building is occupied, and covered in the fire risk assessment.

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 Liverpool: questions

Can you survey in Liverpool and nearby towns?

Yes. Surveys in Liverpool, Birkenhead, Wallasey and elsewhere in Merseyside 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.

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.
