Shopfront security grilles in Slough

Shopfront security grilles in Slough: what will it cost?

As a guide, shopfront security grilles in Slough cost £1,195 to £3,495 plus VAT (£1,434 to £4,194 inc VAT) per shopfront, supplied and fitted. The exact figure depends on size, type, finish and locking, and is confirmed in writing after the free survey.

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.

Getting the right shopfront grille for your building

Where the stack parks

We plan stack positions around displays, pilasters and the door so the grille folds away without blocking stock.

Risk level

Phone shops, jewellers and pharmacies may want heavier sections, more locking points or a certified product.

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; the insurer decides whether a product meets it.

External grilles and planning

External grilles and shutters on shops and other commercial buildings normally need planning permission from the local council because they change the building's appearance. Many councils' shopfront guides favour internal, open-lattice grilles, particularly in conservation areas.

Shopfront security grilles in Slough: questions

Which areas near Slough do you cover?

We can arrange work in Slough and in nearby Windsor (2 miles), Maidenhead (5 miles) and Gerrards Cross (6 miles). Dates depend on installer availability.

Can you fit the grille without closing the shop?

Usually. Fitting is noisy for short spells while tracks are drilled, so we offer early-morning or after-closing slots where the installer's schedule allows.

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.

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.
