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.

Choices you can make

Powder-coated in white, black or anthracite to sit with the frame colour
Anti-tamper fixings into masonry or a fabricated subframe
Fitted inside the glass by default; external options for recessed or plain openings
Works with uPVC, aluminium, timber and steel windows
Retractable, fixed or removable designs
Quick-release escape handle for bedroom and upstairs windows

Herefordshire is largely rural, with black-and-white timber-framed buildings, stone farmhouses and small market-town high streets such as Hereford and Leominster.

Where window security grilles are most often used:

Flats with windows onto shared walkways
Outbuildings, workshops and garages with glazing
Offices and shops with side or rear windows
Rear windows facing alleys and gardens

What to think about first

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.

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.

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 Leominster: questions

Which areas near Leominster do you cover?

We can arrange work in Leominster and in nearby Ludlow (10 miles), Hereford (12 miles) and Loughton (16 miles). Dates depend on installer availability.

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.

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.

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.
