Things to think about
Existing grilles
Old grilles can be removed and taken away as part of the job.
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
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.
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.
