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
- Heavier sections and extra locking for higher-risk trades
- Brushed, galvanised, white, black or RAL colours
- Stack positions planned around stallrisers, pilasters and display units
- Multi-leaf retractable layouts for windows several metres wide
- Fitted behind the glass so the shopfront itself is unchanged
- Fitting scheduled outside trading hours where possible

Things to decide before you order
Lattice or roller
Retractable lattice suits most shop windows. An internal roller grille needs space for the coil above the window but leaves nothing at the sides.
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.
Rules that apply in Scotland
Grilles inside the glass
A grille fitted inside the glass does not normally need planning permission in Scotland, as it does not materially change the outside of the building. If the building is listed, listed building consent may still be needed.
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.

Shopfront security grilles in Inverurie: questions
Which areas near Inverurie do you cover?
We can arrange work in Inverurie and in nearby Aberdeen (14 miles), Stonehaven (23 miles) and Peterhead (26 miles). Dates depend on installer availability.
Can customers see into the shop with the grille closed?
Yes. An open lattice or open-mesh roller grille keeps the display visible, which helps window shopping after hours and natural surveillance of the street.
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.
