Roller security grilles in Taunton

How much should I budget for roller security grilles in Taunton?

Roller security grilles in Taunton typically cost £1,495 to £4,995 plus VAT (£1,794 to £5,994 inc VAT) per opening, supplied and fitted. Use the quote tool for a guide figure, then we survey and confirm a fixed price.

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.

Choices you can make

Guide channels fixed to the face or into the reveal
Brick-bond or straight link patterns in aluminium or steel
Manual spring-balanced, crank or electric operation
Coil box above the opening, internal or external
Suitable for shopping centre units, counters and wide internal openings
Mill, anodised or powder-coated finishes

Fitting in Taunton and nearby

Surveys in Taunton (TA1) are booked around installer availability, as they are in nearby Bridgwater (9 miles) and Burnham-on-Sea (16 miles).

Somerset ranges from Bath's Georgian stone terraces, almost all within a World Heritage Site, to Weston-super-Mare's seaside streets and Taunton's town centre.

Where roller security grilles are most often used:

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

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.

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.

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.

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.

Roller security grilles in Taunton: questions

Can you survey in Taunton and nearby towns?

Yes. Surveys in Taunton, Bridgwater, Burnham-on-Sea and elsewhere in Somerset 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.

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.

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.
