Security grille installation in Penzance: what will it cost?
Fit-only work in Penzance usually costs £234 to £594 including VAT (£195 to £495 plus VAT) per opening. New grilles are priced supplied and fitted, with a free survey and a fixed price in writing.

Things to think about
Existing grilles

Timing
Shops and offices can usually book early or late slots, subject to the installer's schedule.
What the rules say 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.
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.
