How much should I budget for roller security grilles in Chichester?
Most roller security grilles in Chichester fall within £1,495 to £4,995 plus VAT (£1,794 to £5,994 inc VAT) per opening for supply and fitting. We confirm a fixed price in writing after a free survey, before anything is ordered.
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
- Suitable for shopping centre units, counters and wide internal openings
- Coil box above the opening, internal or external
- Safety edges, manual override and anti-drop devices on powered grilles
- Manual spring-balanced, crank or electric operation
- Pass doors or wicket gates on request for some wide openings

West Sussex combines Crawley's new-town estates and commercial areas with coastal towns such as Worthing and historic Chichester.
Where roller security grilles are most often used:
- Car park and stairwell openings
- Shops with deep heads above the glazing
- 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.
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.
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 Chichester: questions
Can you survey in Chichester and nearby towns?
Yes. Surveys in Chichester, Bognor Regis, Havant and elsewhere in West Sussex 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.
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.
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.
