Security grille installation in Bishop Auckland: what will it cost?
Fitting grilles you already own in Bishop Auckland typically costs £234 to £594 including VAT (£195 to £495 plus VAT) per opening, after we have checked the product. For new grilles, fitting is included in the supplied-and-fitted price confirmed after a free survey.
Security grille installation covers the free survey, measuring, ordering and fitting of your grilles, then a handover where we show you how to operate and look after them. You contract with us for the whole job, and the work is carried out by installers working under our contract.
What we look at
- Laser and tape measurements of every reveal
- Operating and care handover
- Dust sheets, vacuum and tidy-up
- Free survey for new installations
- Check of fixing substrate before ordering

Things to think about
Timing
Shops and offices can usually book early or late slots, subject to the installer's schedule.
What the wall is made of
Solid brick and block take direct fixings; stud, render and thin reveals may need a subframe.
What the rules say in 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.
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.
