Security grille servicing in Edinburgh: what will it cost?

Security grille servicing in Edinburgh costs £114 to £234 including VAT (£95 to £195 plus VAT) per grille, with a minimum visit charge of £174 including VAT (£145 plus VAT). The price is confirmed before the visit.

Security grille servicing is planned maintenance that keeps grilles running smoothly and locking properly. A service cleans the tracks, lubricates the pivots and runners, checks fixings and alignment, tests the lock and any release mechanism, and records anything that needs attention.

What we look at

  • Lubrication of pivots, runners and lock
  • Check of fixings, alignment and stack
  • Lock and key operation test
  • Roller grille spring, motor and safety device checks
  • Annual or six-monthly plans for multiple grilles
  • Track cleaning and debris removal

Powered grilles

Electric grilles need checks of their safety devices as well as the mechanics.

What the rules say in Scotland

Scotland

Grilles across exits in business premises

In Scotland, the Fire (Scotland) Act 2005 and the Fire Safety (Scotland) Regulations 2006 make the duty holder keep escape routes and exits available and easy to open while people are present. A grille across an exit should be open whenever the premises are occupied.

Bedroom and escape windows

In Scotland, escape from homes is covered by the Building Standards technical handbooks (section 2, fire). 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.

Yes, most makes and types.

Do I get a record of the service?

Yes, with a light dry lubricant on the pivots and runners, and by keeping the bottom track clear. Avoid heavy grease, which collects dirt.
