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
- Quick-release escape handle for bedroom and upstairs windows
- Works with uPVC, aluminium, timber and steel windows
- Fitted inside the glass by default; external options for recessed or plain openings
- Retractable, fixed or removable designs
- Powder-coated in white, black or anthracite to sit with the frame colour
- Made to measure for the reveal, including bays and splayed reveals

Devon runs from post-war Plymouth and Exeter city centres to Victorian seaside terraces in Torbay and thatched and stone cottages inland.
Typical places for this kind of grille include:
- Offices and shops with side or rear windows
- Rear windows facing alleys and gardens
- Flats with windows onto shared walkways
- Ground-floor and basement windows
Things to decide before you order
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.
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 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 Exmouth: questions
Do you cover Exeter as well as Exmouth?
Yes. As well as Exmouth, we can arrange surveys in nearby Exeter, Newton Abbot and Torquay, and elsewhere in Devon.
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.
