How much do window security grilles cost in Wrexham?
As a guide, window security grilles in Wrexham cost £414 to £954 including VAT (£345 to £795 plus VAT) per window, supplied and fitted. The exact figure depends on size, type, finish and locking, and is confirmed in writing after the free 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.
Choices you can make
- Retractable, fixed or removable designs
- Anti-tamper fixings into masonry or a fabricated subframe
- Made to measure for the reveal, including bays and splayed reveals
- Quick-release escape handle for bedroom and upstairs windows
- Fitted inside the glass by default; external options for recessed or plain openings
- Powder-coated in white, black or anthracite to sit with the frame colour
Fitting in Wrexham and nearby
We arrange surveys and fitting across Wrexham and the LL13 postcode district, and in nearby Rhosllanerchrugog (4 miles), Buckley (9 miles) and Hawarden.
North-east Wales mixes Wrexham's terraces and retail centres with Victorian seaside towns such as Llandudno, Rhyl and Colwyn Bay.
Typical places for this kind of grille include:
- Offices and shops with side or rear windows
- Outbuildings, workshops and garages with glazing
- Ground-floor and basement windows
- Flats with windows onto shared walkways
Things to decide before you order
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.
Rules that apply in Wales
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.
Bedroom and escape windows
Wales has its own Approved Documents under the Building Regulations. Approved Document B for Wales sets out escape window provisions for dwellings broadly in line with England's, including minimum opening sizes. We only fit grilles over escape windows with a keyless internal release.

Window security grilles in Wrexham: questions
Do you cover Rhosllanerchrugog as well as Wrexham?
Yes. As well as Wrexham, we can arrange surveys in nearby Rhosllanerchrugog, Buckley and Hawarden, and elsewhere in Clwyd.
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.
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.
Should window grilles go inside or outside?
Inside in most cases. Internal grilles avoid weathering, are harder to attack, keep the outside of the building unchanged and rarely need planning permission. External grilles suit openings with no internal depth.
