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
- Made to measure for the reveal, including bays and splayed reveals
- Lock positioned to clear window handles and restrictors
- Fitted inside the glass by default; external options for recessed or plain openings
- Powder-coated in white, black or anthracite to sit with the frame colour
- Anti-tamper fixings into masonry or a fabricated subframe
- Retractable, fixed or removable designs

Questions we will ask at the survey
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.
Colour
White disappears against white frames, while black or anthracite suits darker frames and period sash windows.
Planning and safety in England
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.
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 Thornton-Cleveleys: questions
Do you cover Fleetwood as well as Thornton-Cleveleys?
Yes. As well as Thornton-Cleveleys, we can arrange surveys in nearby Fleetwood, Blackpool and Lytham St Annes, and elsewhere in Lancashire.
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.
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.
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.
