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 Stafford and nearby
Stafford is about 14 miles from Stoke-on-Trent, the main centre for Staffordshire. We can survey and fit across the ST16 district and in nearby places such as Rugeley and Cannock.
Staffordshire mixes the Potteries' Victorian terraces and former works buildings with market towns such as Stafford, Lichfield and Burton.
Typical places for this kind of grille include:
- Properties awaiting sale or probate
- Empty shops and offices
- Development sites before works
- Buildings between tenants
Things to decide before you order
How long it will be empty
For short voids, screens are quick to put up and take down.
Ventilation
Perforated screens help prevent damp in empty buildings.
Rules that apply in England
Insurer requirements
Insurers set their own conditions for business premises, stock and cash. If your policy names a type or rating of grille, get the wording in writing before ordering; the insurer decides whether a product meets it.
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.
