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.

- Multi-leaf retractable layouts for windows several metres wide
- Fitting scheduled outside trading hours where possible
- Heavier sections and extra locking for higher-risk trades
- Door leaf or separate gate across the entrance
- Stack positions planned around stallrisers, pilasters and display units
- Brushed, galvanised, white, black or RAL colours
Fitting in Faversham and nearby
Faversham is about 16 miles from Maidstone, the main centre for Kent. We can survey and fit across the ME13 district and in nearby places such as Whitstable and Sittingbourne.
Kent ranges from Medway's Victorian terraces and Thanet's seaside towns to listed medieval centres such as Canterbury and Rochester.
This type of grille suits:
- High-street shops and boutiques
- Pharmacies and opticians
- Jewellers and phone shops
- Convenience stores and off-licences
Questions we will ask at the survey
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.

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.
Grilles inside the glass
A grille fitted inside the glass does not normally need planning permission, because it does not materially change how the building looks from outside. If the building is listed, listed building consent may still be needed.

Shopfront security grilles in Faversham: questions
Do you cover Whitstable as well as Faversham?
Yes. As well as Faversham, we can arrange surveys in nearby Whitstable, Sittingbourne and Canterbury, and elsewhere in Kent.
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.
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.
