Budget £1,195 to £3,495 plus VAT (£1,434 to £4,194 inc VAT) per shopfront for shopfront security grilles in Dunfermline, supplied and fitted. Size, number of leaves, colour and access all move the price, which is fixed in writing after the 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.
What goes into a shopfront grille
- Fitted behind the glass so the shopfront itself is unchanged
- Door leaf or separate gate across the entrance
- Heavier sections and extra locking for higher-risk trades
- Fitting scheduled outside trading hours where possible
- Brushed, galvanised, white, black or RAL colours
- Multi-leaf retractable layouts for windows several metres wide

Things to decide before you order
Risk level
Phone shops, jewellers and pharmacies may want heavier sections, more locking points or a certified product.
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
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.
Listed buildings and conservation areas
Listed buildings in Scotland need listed building consent for works affecting their character, decided by the council, with Historic Environment Scotland consulted on some cases. Conservation areas bring extra scrutiny of external changes. Check with the council before ordering.

Shopfront security grilles in Dunfermline: questions
Which areas near Dunfermline do you cover?
We can arrange work in Dunfermline and in nearby Grangemouth (11 miles), Livingston (12 miles) and Kirkcaldy (12 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.
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.
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.
