What is the price of window security grilles in Sale?

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.

- 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
- Fitted inside the glass by default; external options for recessed or plain openings

Fitting in Sale and nearby
Sale is about 5 miles from Manchester, the main centre for Greater Manchester. We can survey and fit across the M33 district and in nearby places such as Stretford and Urmston.
Greater Manchester is dominated by red-brick terraces and mill-town centres, with converted mills, modern city-centre flats and large retail parks.
This type of grille suits:
- Outbuildings, workshops and garages with glazing
- Ground-floor and basement windows
- Offices and shops with side or rear windows
- Flats with windows onto shared walkways
Questions we will ask at the survey
Colour
White disappears against white frames, while black or anthracite suits darker frames and period sash windows.
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.
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.
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 Sale: questions
Which areas near Sale do you cover?
We can arrange work in Sale and in nearby Stretford (2 miles), Urmston (2 miles) and Altrincham (3 miles). Dates depend on installer availability.
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.
