Security grilles in Berkshire
If an exit is affected, staff at premises in the South East need a clear opening routine, and we build that into your Berkshire grille design.
A grille keeps your Berkshire window display in view after closing, which suits owners who want passers-by to see the stock at night. Fixed bars can be a low-cost first step for rear windows and stockrooms that never need opening at your Berkshire premises.
What do we offer in Berkshire?
How much does it cost in Berkshire?
As a guide, allow £795 to £1,995 ex VAT per opening. We look at what sits behind the glass at your Berkshire shop, because a folding grille needs room to stack and lock. We set out every cost in writing before work starts.

Common questions
Do you cover all of Berkshire?
Yes. ShopFronts UK works across Berkshire, including Bracknell, Maidenhead, Newbury, Reading.
Can I fit a grille over a fire exit?
Only if it is fully open or unlocked while anyone is inside. An emergency exit cannot be locked in a way that stops people getting out. Your fire risk assessment must cover this, and a lockable grille needs a clear daily routine with a named person responsible.
Do I need planning permission for security grilles?
Internal grilles usually do not need planning permission in England, but external ones often do if they change the look of the building. Listed buildings can need consent for either type. Rules differ in Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland, so we confirm this before ordering.
Will a grille damage my shopfront frame?
Not if it is fixed properly. Side tracks need a sound substrate, so we fix into masonry or add a steel subframe and do not rely on thin aluminium sections. On listed buildings, fixing positions must be planned carefully, and consent may be required.
