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
- Works with uPVC, aluminium, timber and steel windows
- Quick-release escape handle for bedroom and upstairs windows
- Fitted inside the glass by default; external options for recessed or plain openings
- Lock positioned to clear window handles and restrictors
- Made to measure for the reveal, including bays and splayed reveals
Fitting in Beckenham and nearby
We arrange surveys and fitting in Beckenham and across the BR3 postcode district, as well as in nearby Catford (3 miles) and Croydon (4 miles). Dates depend on installer availability.
London's buildings range from Victorian and Edwardian terraces and mansion blocks to post-war estates, with long high streets of ground-floor shops below flats.
This type of grille suits:
- Rear windows facing alleys and gardens
- Outbuildings, workshops and garages with glazing
- Flats with windows onto shared walkways
- Ground-floor and basement windows
Questions we will ask at the survey
Colour
White disappears against white frames, while black or anthracite suits darker frames and period sash windows.
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.
Planning and safety in England
Grilles inside the glass
A grille fitted inside the glass does not normally need planning permission, because it does not materially change how the building looks from outside. If the building is listed, listed building consent may still be needed.
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 Beckenham: questions
Do you cover Catford as well as Beckenham?
Yes. As well as Beckenham, we can arrange surveys in nearby Catford, Croydon and Blackheath, and elsewhere in Greater London.
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.
