Security grille installation in Downpatrick: what will it cost?

What the rules say in Northern Ireland
Bedroom and escape windows
Fire safety in new building work in Northern Ireland is covered by the Building Regulations (Northern Ireland) 2012 and Technical Booklet E. Where a room relies on a window for escape, nothing fitted over it should stop it being used. We only fit grilles over escape windows with a keyless internal release.
Grilles inside the glass
A grille fitted inside the glass does not normally need planning permission in Northern Ireland, as it does not materially change the outside of the building. If the building is listed, listed building consent may still be needed.
How it works
- Tell us what needs fitting
- Free survey for new installations
- Fixed price in writing
- Fitting, testing and handover
Security grille installation in Downpatrick: questions
Which areas near Downpatrick do you cover?

How long does installation take?
Most single grilles take one to two hours. A whole house or shopfront may take a day.
Will fitting make a mess?
Drilling makes some dust. Installers use dust sheets and a vacuum and leave the area tidy.

Often, yes. We check the product, measurements and fixings first, then quote a fit-only price, usually from £195 plus VAT (£234 inc VAT) per opening.
