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.

- Fitted inside the glass by default; external options for recessed or plain openings
- Lock positioned to clear window handles and restrictors
- 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
- Powder-coated in white, black or anthracite to sit with the frame colour
Fitting in Tewkesbury and nearby
Whether you are in central Tewkesbury or at the edge of the GL20 district, we can arrange a survey. Nearby Cheltenham and Gloucester are covered too.
Gloucestershire mixes Cotswold stone towns and villages, Regency terraces in Cheltenham, and the commercial and retail centres of Gloucester and Yate.
Typical places for this kind of grille include:
- Rear windows facing alleys and gardens
- Outbuildings, workshops and garages with glazing
- 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.
Escape requirements
If the window is a designated escape window, the grille must open from inside without a key or tool. We fit quick-release locks for these.
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 Tewkesbury: questions
Do you cover Cheltenham as well as Tewkesbury?
Yes. As well as Tewkesbury, we can arrange surveys in nearby Cheltenham, Gloucester and Malvern, and elsewhere in Gloucestershire.
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.
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.
