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.

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.

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.

Grilles across exits in business premises

In workplaces and other non-domestic premises, including the common parts of blocks of flats and HMOs, the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 makes the responsible person keep escape routes and emergency exits available and easy to open while people are present. A grille across an exit should be unlocked and parked open whenever the building is occupied, and covered in the fire risk assessment.

Shopfront security grilles in Grimsby: questions

Can you survey in Grimsby and nearby towns?

Yes. Surveys in Grimsby, Cleethorpes, Louth and elsewhere in Lincolnshire are booked around 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 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.

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.
