Fitting in Sandhurst and nearby
Sandhurst is about 11 miles from Reading, the main centre for Berkshire. We can survey and fit across the GU47 district and in nearby places such as Crowthorne and Yateley.
Berkshire mixes Victorian and Edwardian terraces in Reading, commuter semis along the Thames Valley and modern business parks around Slough and Bracknell.
Typical places for this kind of grille include:
- Outbuildings, workshops and garages with glazing
- Ground-floor and basement windows
- Flats with windows onto shared walkways
- Rear windows facing alleys and gardens
Things to decide before you order
Colour
White disappears against white frames, while black or anthracite suits darker frames and period sash windows.
Retractable, fixed or removable
Match the grille to how often the window opens. Daily-use windows suit retractable; never-opened windows suit fixed; occasional windows suit removable.
Rules that apply in England
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.
Listed buildings and conservation areas
Listed buildings need listed building consent for works that affect their character, which can include internal grilles and their fixings. In conservation areas, councils look closely at anything fitted to the outside. We recommend speaking to the council's conservation officer before ordering.

Window security grilles in Sandhurst: questions
Do you cover Crowthorne as well as Sandhurst?
Yes. As well as Sandhurst, we can arrange surveys in nearby Crowthorne, Yateley and Camberley, and elsewhere in Berkshire.
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.
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.
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.
