What is the price of vacant property grilles and screens in Horsham?

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.
What you can specify
- Light and ventilation through perforations
- Supply-and-fit for purchase
- Fixing to brick, block, timber or uPVC frames
- Perforated steel window screens
- Anti-tamper fixings
- Schedules for portfolios of empty units

West Sussex combines Crawley's new-town estates and commercial areas with coastal towns such as Worthing and historic Chichester.
This type of grille suits:
- Void council and housing association homes
- Properties awaiting sale or probate
- Buildings between tenants
- Empty shops and offices
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.
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.

Vacant property grilles and screens in Horsham: questions
Which areas near Horsham do you cover?
We can arrange work in Horsham and in nearby Crawley (7 miles), Horley (11 miles) and Haywards Heath (11 miles). Dates depend on installer availability.
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.
Can screens be fitted to upper windows?
Yes, where they can be reached safely. Accessible upper windows above flat roofs or extensions are often included.
Do screens damage the building?
Screens are fixed with anchors that leave small holes, which we make good when the screens come down.
