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.

Fitting in Halewood and nearby

This type of grille suits:
- Empty shops and offices
- Properties awaiting sale or probate
- Development sites before works
- Void council and housing association homes
Questions we will ask at the survey
Ventilation
Perforated screens help prevent damp in empty buildings.
Access
Decide who needs access and whether a key or code lock suits them.
Planning and safety in England
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 in rented homes
Landlords in England must keep rented homes free from serious hazards under the Housing Health and Safety Rating System, which includes fire. A grille that stops a tenant using an escape window can create a hazard, so grilles in rented homes should have keyless internal releases.

Vacant property grilles and screens in Halewood: questions
Do you cover Huyton as well as Halewood?
Yes. As well as Halewood, we can arrange surveys in nearby Huyton, Widnes and Runcorn, and elsewhere in Merseyside.
Can you secure several empty properties?
Yes. Send the list of addresses and openings and we will price it as a schedule.
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.
Are screens better than boarding?
Steel screens are stronger, harder to remove, let light in and generally look less neglected than timber boards.
