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 goes into a window grille
- Anti-tamper fixings into masonry or a fabricated subframe
- Works with uPVC, aluminium, timber and steel windows
- Made to measure for the reveal, including bays and splayed reveals
- Quick-release escape handle for bedroom and upstairs windows
- Lock positioned to clear window handles and restrictors
- Fitted inside the glass by default; external options for recessed or plain openings

What to think about first
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.
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.
Consents and safety: 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 Yateley: questions
Can you survey in Yateley and nearby towns?
Yes. Surveys in Yateley, Sandhurst, Crowthorne and elsewhere in Hampshire are booked around installer availability.
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.
Will a grille damage my window frame?
No. Grilles fix to the wall reveal or a subframe, not to the window itself, so the frame and its warranty are unaffected.
