We arrange security grille repairs visits in Ashington and across the NE63 postcode district, as well as in nearby Blyth (4 miles) and Morpeth (5 miles). Dates depend on engineer availability.
Northumberland is largely rural, with stone-built market towns such as Hexham and Alnwick and terraced former mining towns in the south-east.
Typical reasons to book:
- Grilles damaged in an attempted break-in
- Retractable grilles that stick or jump the track
- Roller grilles that will not open or close
- Old grilles in rented or newly bought properties
Things to think about
Repair or replace
If the frame is sound, repair is usually best. Heavily corroded or badly bent grilles are often better replaced.
Parts
Some older grilles need parts that are no longer made; equivalents can often be adapted.
Rules that apply in 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.
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.
