Vacant property grilles and screens are steel panels or grilles fixed over the windows and doors of an empty building to stop break-ins, squatting, fly-tipping and vandalism. Perforated steel screens let light and air in while keeping people out, and come down cleanly when the building is reoccupied.

  • Fixing to brick, block, timber or uPVC frames
  • Schedules for portfolios of empty units
  • Anti-tamper fixings
  • Removal and making good at reoccupation

Rules that apply in Wales

External grilles and planning

External grilles and shutters on commercial buildings normally need planning permission from the local planning authority. Welsh councils' shopfront and design guidance generally favours internal, see-through security over solid external shutters.

Grilles in rented homes

Under the Renting Homes (Wales) Act 2016, landlords must keep dwellings fit for human habitation, which takes fire hazards into account. Grilles over windows a contract-holder may need for escape should open from inside without a key.

Vacant property grilles and screens in Gwent: questions

Which towns in Gwent do you cover?

We can arrange work anywhere in Gwent, including Newport, Cwmbran, Pontypool, Ebbw Vale and Risca, and in other towns across the area.

Do screens damage the building?

Screens are fixed with anchors that leave small holes, which we make good when the screens come down.

Are screens better than boarding?

Steel screens are stronger, harder to remove, let light in and generally look less neglected than timber boards.

How quickly can screens be fitted?

Steel screens are standard sizes adjusted on site, so they can usually be fitted faster than made-to-measure grilles. We confirm the date when you book.
