How much do shopfront security grilles cost in Greenwich?
Budget £1,195 to £3,495 plus VAT (£1,434 to £4,194 inc VAT) per shopfront for shopfront security grilles in Greenwich, 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.
Choices you can make
- Heavier sections and extra locking for higher-risk trades
- Fitted behind the glass so the shopfront itself is unchanged
- Brushed, galvanised, white, black or RAL colours
- Internal open-mesh roller grilles where there is head space for the coil
- Door leaf or separate gate across the entrance
- Stack positions planned around stallrisers, pilasters and display units

London's buildings range from Victorian and Edwardian terraces and mansion blocks to post-war estates, with long high streets of ground-floor shops below flats.

- Jewellers and phone shops
- Cafés, restaurants and takeaways
- High-street shops and boutiques
- Pharmacies and opticians
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.
Where the stack parks
We plan stack positions around displays, pilasters and the door so the grille folds away without blocking stock.
Rules that apply in England
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.
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.

Shopfront security grilles in Greenwich: questions
Can you survey in Greenwich and nearby towns?
Yes. Surveys in Greenwich, Blackheath, Canary Wharf and elsewhere in Greater London are booked around 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.
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.
