How much do window security grilles cost in Newton Abbot?
Budget £414 to £954 including VAT (£345 to £795 plus VAT) per window for window security grilles in Newton Abbot, 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
- Quick-release escape handle for bedroom and upstairs windows
- Works with uPVC, aluminium, timber and steel windows
- Anti-tamper fixings into masonry or a fabricated subframe
- Made to measure for the reveal, including bays and splayed reveals
- Lock positioned to clear window handles and restrictors

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.
Colour
White disappears against white frames, while black or anthracite suits darker frames and period sash windows.
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.
Bedroom and escape windows
Approved Document B (fire safety) expects many habitable rooms in houses, especially first-floor rooms, to have an emergency escape window with an unobstructed opening of at least 0.33 m², at least 450 mm high and 450 mm wide, with the bottom of the opening no more than 1,100 mm above the floor. We only fit grilles over escape windows with a release that opens from inside without a key.

Window security grilles in Newton Abbot: questions
Can you survey in Newton Abbot and nearby towns?
Yes. Surveys in Newton Abbot, Torquay, Paignton and elsewhere in Devon are booked around installer availability.
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.
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.
