As a guide, shopfront security grilles in Streatham 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.
What you can specify
- Internal open-mesh roller grilles where there is head space for the coil
- Multi-leaf retractable layouts for windows several metres wide
- Door leaf or separate gate across the entrance
- Stack positions planned around stallrisers, pilasters and display units
- Fitted behind the glass so the shopfront itself is unchanged
- Brushed, galvanised, white, black or RAL colours

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.

- Convenience stores and off-licences

- Jewellers and phone shops
- High-street shops and boutiques
Things to decide before you order
Risk level
Phone shops, jewellers and pharmacies may want heavier sections, more locking points or a certified product.
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.
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 Streatham: questions
Which areas near Streatham do you cover?
We can arrange work in Streatham and in nearby Mitcham (2 miles), Brixton (3 miles) and Wimbledon (3 miles). Dates depend on 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 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.
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.
