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.
Specification at a glance

- Heavier sections and extra locking for higher-risk trades
- Stack positions planned around stallrisers, pilasters and display units
- Fitted behind the glass so the shopfront itself is unchanged

Where the stack parks
We plan stack positions around displays, pilasters and the door so the grille folds away without blocking stock.
Consents and safety: England
Listed buildings and conservation areas
Listed buildings need listed building consent for works that affect their character, which can include internal grilles and their fixings. In conservation areas, councils look closely at anything fitted to the outside. We recommend speaking to the council's conservation officer before ordering.
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 Burnley: questions
Which areas near Burnley do you cover?
We can arrange work in Burnley and in nearby Nelson (3 miles), Colne (5 miles) and Accrington (6 miles). Dates depend on installer availability.
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.
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.
