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
- Safety edges, manual override and anti-drop devices on powered grilles
- Mill, anodised or powder-coated finishes
- Pass doors or wicket gates on request for some wide openings
- Suitable for shopping centre units, counters and wide internal openings
- Manual spring-balanced, crank or electric operation
- Brick-bond or straight link patterns in aluminium or steel

Tyne and Wear is known for Tyneside flats and brick terraces, Newcastle's listed Grainger Town, and large retail and office centres.
Typical places for this kind of grille include:
- Car park and stairwell openings
- Shopping centre and arcade units
- Wide internal openings and lobbies
- 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.
Powered door safety
Electric grilles are powered doors, so they need the right safety devices, a risk assessment and regular maintenance.
Rules that apply in England
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.
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 North Shields: questions
Do you cover Tynemouth as well as North Shields?
Yes. As well as North Shields, we can arrange surveys in nearby Tynemouth, South Shields and Whitley Bay, and elsewhere in Tyne and Wear.
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.
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.
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.
