What is the price of window security grilles in Redditch?

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
- Powder-coated in white, black or anthracite to sit with the frame colour
Fitting in Redditch and nearby
Surveys in Redditch (B97) are booked around installer availability. We also cover nearby Bromsgrove (5 miles), Shirley (9 miles) and Droitwich (9 miles).
Worcestershire combines Worcester's historic centre, Victorian Malvern, and the terraces and retail centres of Redditch and Kidderminster.
This type of grille suits:
- Offices and shops with side or rear windows
- Outbuildings, workshops and garages with glazing
- Flats with windows onto shared walkways
- Rear windows facing alleys and gardens
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
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 Redditch: questions
Can you survey in Redditch and nearby towns?
Yes. Surveys in Redditch, Bromsgrove, Shirley and elsewhere in Worcestershire are booked around installer availability.
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.
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.
