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.

Fitting in Seaford and nearby

Surveys in Seaford (BN25) are booked around installer availability. We also cover nearby Eastbourne (8 miles), Hailsham (9 miles) and Brighton (11 miles).

East Sussex is known for Regency and Victorian terraces in Brighton, Hove, Eastbourne and Hastings, many in conservation areas, alongside Wealden villages.

Typical places for this kind of grille include:

Rear windows facing alleys and gardens
Offices and shops with side or rear windows
Ground-floor and basement windows
Flats with windows onto shared walkways

Things to decide before you order

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.

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

England

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.

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.

Window security grilles in Seaford: questions

Do you cover Eastbourne as well as Seaford?

Yes. As well as Seaford, we can arrange surveys in nearby Eastbourne, Hailsham and Brighton, and elsewhere in East Sussex.

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.

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.

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.
