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

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
Lock positioned to clear window handles and restrictors
Made to measure for the reveal, including bays and splayed reveals
Quick-release escape handle for bedroom and upstairs windows

Fitting in Ossett and nearby

Surveys in Ossett (WF5) are booked around installer availability. We also cover nearby Dewsbury (2 miles), Batley (3 miles) and Wakefield (3 miles).

West Yorkshire is known for stone and brick terraces, back-to-backs in Leeds and Bradford, converted mills, and busy city and town centres.

This type of grille suits:

Rear windows facing alleys and gardens
Flats with windows onto shared walkways
Outbuildings, workshops and garages with glazing
Ground-floor and basement windows

Questions we will ask at the survey

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.

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

England

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.

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 Ossett: questions

Can you survey in Ossett and nearby towns?

Yes. Surveys in Ossett, Dewsbury, Batley and elsewhere in West Yorkshire are booked around installer availability.

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.

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.
