How much should I budget for roller security grilles in Redditch?
Our guide range for roller security grilles in Redditch is £1,495 to £4,995 plus VAT (£1,794 to £5,994 inc VAT) per opening, including fitting. The survey is free for new installations and your fixed price follows in writing.
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
- Brick-bond or straight link patterns in aluminium or steel
- Safety edges, manual override and anti-drop devices on powered grilles
- Coil box above the opening, internal or external
- 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
Fitting in Redditch and nearby
Surveys in Redditch (B97) are booked around installer availability. We also cover nearby Bromsgrove (5 miles), Shirley (9 miles) and Droitwich (9 miles).

Where roller security grilles are most often used:
- Shopping centre and arcade units
- Counters and kiosks
- Shops with deep heads above the glazing
- Wide internal openings and lobbies
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.
Powered door safety
Electric grilles are powered doors, so they need the right safety devices, a risk assessment and regular maintenance.
Consents and safety: England
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.
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 Redditch: questions
Do you cover Bromsgrove as well as Redditch?
Yes. As well as Redditch, we can arrange surveys in nearby Bromsgrove, Shirley and Droitwich, and elsewhere in Worcestershire.
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.
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.
