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.
Choices you can make
- Multi-leaf retractable layouts for windows several metres wide
- Brushed, galvanised, white, black or RAL colours
- Internal open-mesh roller grilles where there is head space for the coil
- Stack positions planned around stallrisers, pilasters and display units
- Fitting scheduled outside trading hours where possible
- Fitted behind the glass so the shopfront itself is unchanged

What to think about first
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.

Grilles across exits in business premises
The Fire and Rescue Services (Northern Ireland) Order 2006 and the Fire Safety Regulations (Northern Ireland) 2010 make the appropriate person 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.
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 Coleraine: questions
Can you survey in Coleraine and nearby towns?
Yes. Surveys in Coleraine, Ballymoney, Limavady and elsewhere in County Londonderry are booked around installer availability.
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.
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.
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.
