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 Tipton and nearby
Tipton is about 8 miles from Birmingham, the main centre for West Midlands. We can survey and fit across the DY4 district and in nearby places such as Dudley and Wednesbury.
The West Midlands is dominated by red-brick terraces and interwar semis, with dense high streets and a large stock of industrial and trade units.
This type of grille suits:
- Properties awaiting sale or probate
- Void council and housing association homes
- Buildings between tenants
- Development sites before works
Questions we will ask at the survey
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.
Planning and safety 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.
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.
