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
- Internal open-mesh roller grilles where there is head space for the coil
- Multi-leaf retractable layouts for windows several metres wide
- Stack positions planned around stallrisers, pilasters and display units
- Fitting scheduled outside trading hours where possible
- Heavier sections and extra locking for higher-risk trades
- Door leaf or separate gate across the entrance

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 Northern Ireland
Grilles inside the glass
A grille fitted inside the glass does not normally need planning permission in Northern Ireland, 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
Planning in Northern Ireland is handled by the eleven councils. External grilles and shutters on commercial buildings normally need planning permission, and councils generally prefer internal, see-through security in town centres.

Shopfront security grilles in Cookstown: questions

We can arrange work in Cookstown and in nearby Magherafelt (10 miles), Dungannon (10 miles) and Portadown (19 miles). Dates depend on installer availability.
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.
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.
