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

Internal open-mesh roller grilles where there is head space for the coil
Fitting scheduled outside trading hours where possible
Door leaf or separate gate across the entrance
Heavier sections and extra locking for higher-risk trades
Multi-leaf retractable layouts for windows several metres wide
Fitted behind the glass so the shopfront itself is unchanged

Things to decide before you order

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 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 Kettering: questions

Do you cover Wellingborough as well as Kettering?

Yes. As well as Kettering, we can arrange surveys in nearby Wellingborough, Corby and Rushden, and elsewhere in Northamptonshire.

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.

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.
