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
- Fitted inside the glass by default; external options for recessed or plain openings
- Retractable, fixed or removable designs
- Made to measure for the reveal, including bays and splayed reveals
- Lock positioned to clear window handles and restrictors
- Works with uPVC, aluminium, timber and steel windows
- Quick-release escape handle for bedroom and upstairs windows

Getting the right window grille for your building
Colour
White disappears against white frames, while black or anthracite suits darker frames and period sash windows.
Depth in the reveal
Tracks need a few centimetres of flat reveal. Where the frame sits flush with the wall, the grille can be fixed to a slim subframe instead.
What the rules say in Wales
Listed buildings and conservation areas
Listed buildings in Wales need listed building consent for works affecting their character, decided by the local planning authority with Cadw's involvement where required. Conservation areas bring extra scrutiny of external changes. Check with the council before ordering.
Grilles inside the glass
A grille fitted inside the glass does not normally need planning permission in Wales, as it does not materially change the outside of the building. If the building is listed, listed building consent may still be needed.

Window security grilles in Flint: questions
Which areas near Flint do you cover?
We can arrange work in Flint and in nearby Deeside (5 miles), Mold (5 miles) and Buckley (6 miles). Dates depend on installer availability.
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.
Do grilles work on bay windows?
Yes. A bay is usually treated as separate grilles for each face, or one grille following the bay on a curved or angled track.
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.
