Shopfront security grilles in Swindon

How much should I budget for shopfront security grilles in Swindon?

Most shopfront security grilles in Swindon fall within £1,195 to £3,495 plus VAT (£1,434 to £4,194 inc VAT) per shopfront for supply and fitting. We confirm a fixed price in writing after a free survey, before anything is ordered.

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 to think about first

Risk level

Phone shops, jewellers and pharmacies may want heavier sections, more locking points or a certified product.

Where the stack parks

We plan stack positions around displays, pilasters and the door so the grille folds away without blocking stock.

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.

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 Swindon: questions

Do you cover Calne as well as Swindon?

Yes. As well as Swindon, we can arrange surveys in nearby Calne, Cirencester and Chippenham, and elsewhere in Wiltshire.

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.

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.
