What is the price of window security grilles in Dunoon?
Budget £414 to £954 including VAT (£345 to £795 plus VAT) per window for window security grilles in Dunoon, supplied and fitted. Size, number of leaves, colour and access all move the price, which is fixed in writing after the survey.
A window security grille is a steel barrier fitted across a window so that breaking the glass no longer gives a way in. It can be retractable, fixed or removable, and is most often fitted inside the reveal where it is protected and barely noticed from outside.
What you can specify
- Powder-coated in white, black or anthracite to sit with the frame colour
- Works with uPVC, aluminium, timber and steel windows
- Quick-release escape handle for bedroom and upstairs windows
- Lock positioned to clear window handles and restrictors
- Fitted inside the glass by default; external options for recessed or plain openings
- Anti-tamper fixings into masonry or a fabricated subframe

Planning and safety in Scotland
Listed buildings and conservation areas
Listed buildings in Scotland need listed building consent for works affecting their character, decided by the council, with Historic Environment Scotland consulted on some cases. Conservation areas bring extra scrutiny of external changes. Check with the council before ordering.
Grilles in rented homes
Private landlords in Scotland must meet the repairing standard, which includes fire safety provisions. Grilles over windows a tenant may need for escape should open from inside without a key.

Window security grilles in Dunoon: questions
Do you cover Greenock as well as Dunoon?
Yes. As well as Dunoon, we can arrange surveys in nearby Greenock, Helensburgh and Largs, and elsewhere in Argyll and Bute.
Are window grilles safe in a bedroom?
They can be, provided the grille has a release that opens from inside without a key. Bedroom and upstairs windows often have to serve as escape routes, so we will not fit a key-only grille over a window you need for escape.
Can I still open the window with a grille fitted?
With a retractable or removable grille, yes. Many fixed internal grilles also leave room to open the sash or casement behind them.
Will a grille damage my window frame?
No. Grilles fix to the wall reveal or a subframe, not to the window itself, so the frame and its warranty are unaffected.
