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
- Brick-bond or straight link patterns in aluminium or steel
- Pass doors or wicket gates on request for some wide openings
- 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
- Suitable for shopping centre units, counters and wide internal openings
Fitting in York and nearby
We can arrange roller security grilles across York, the main centre for North Yorkshire, and in nearby towns including Selby, Harrogate and Goole.
North Yorkshire runs from York's walled historic centre and Harrogate's Victorian stone to Teesside's terraces and the Dales' stone villages.
Typical places for this kind of grille include:
- Wide internal openings and lobbies
- Counters and kiosks
- Shops with deep heads above the glazing
- Car park and stairwell openings
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.
Inside or outside
Inside a shopping centre or behind glazing the grille is protected. External roller grilles normally need planning permission.
Rules that apply in 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 York: questions
Which areas near York do you cover?
We can arrange work in York and in nearby Selby (12 miles), Harrogate (19 miles) and Goole (19 miles). Dates depend on installer availability.
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.
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.
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.
