A shopfront security grille is a wide retractable or roller grille fitted behind the shop window and entrance. It protects the glass line after closing while leaving the display visible, which is why many councils prefer it to a solid external shutter.
What goes into a shopfront grille
- Brushed, galvanised, white, black or RAL colours
- Door leaf or separate gate across the entrance
- Multi-leaf retractable layouts for windows several metres wide
- Fitting scheduled outside trading hours where possible
- Fitted behind the glass so the shopfront itself is unchanged
- Internal open-mesh roller grilles where there is head space for the coil

Questions we will ask at the survey
Where the stack parks
We plan stack positions around displays, pilasters and the door so the grille folds away without blocking stock.
Internal or external
Internal grilles are generally preferred by councils and rarely need planning permission. External shutters or grilles normally need consent, especially in conservation areas.

External grilles and planning
External grilles and shutters on commercial buildings normally need planning permission from the council under the Scottish planning system. Councils' shopfront guidance commonly prefers internal, open-mesh security, particularly in conservation areas and town centres.
Insurer requirements
Insurers set their own conditions for business premises, stock and cash. If your policy names a type or rating of grille, get the wording in writing before ordering.

Shopfront security grilles in Fraserburgh: questions
Do you cover Peterhead as well as Fraserburgh?
Yes. As well as Fraserburgh, we can arrange surveys in nearby Peterhead, Inverurie and Aberdeen, and elsewhere in Aberdeen, Aberdeenshire and Moray.
Do I need planning permission for a shop grille?
An internal grille behind the glass does not usually need planning permission. External shutters and grilles normally do, and listed buildings need listed building consent for internal or external works that affect their character.
Will my insurer accept a grille?
Some insurers specify grilles or shutters for certain stock or cash levels. Send us their wording and we will quote to it; the insurer decides whether a product meets their policy.
Can the grille cover the shop door too?
Yes. The door is covered by its own leaf, by a separate gate, or by including it in the main grille run.
