Security grilles in Cumbria

We look at what sits behind the glass at your Cumbria shop, because a folding grille needs room to stack and lock.

Retractable security grille behind a shop window at night

Owners across the North West with more than one opening can have every grille priced together, including any at your Cumbria branch. A grille keeps your Cumbria window display in view after closing, which suits owners who want passers-by to see the stock at night.

What do we offer in Cumbria?

Removable grillePanels lift into locking brackets at night, leaving the front clear by day.
Internal display grilleFitted behind the glass to keep people away from stock, while the pane stays in view from the street.
Retractable lattice grilleFolds to the side during trading and locks across the opening at night. It is also called a collapsible or concertina gate.

How much does it cost in Cumbria?

Expect £795 to £1,995 ex VAT per opening. If an exit is affected, staff at premises in the North West need a clear opening routine, and we build that into your Cumbria grille design. The price we confirm in writing includes travel and access.

Common questions

Do you cover all of Cumbria?

Yes. ShopFronts UK works across Cumbria, including Barrow-in-Furness, Carlisle, Kendal, Penrith.

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.

Is a grille as secure as a roller shutter?

It depends on the product and the risk. A solid external shutter covers the glass, while an internal grille sits behind it and leaves the pane open to damage. A well-made grille still blocks access to stock. For tested performance, look for LPS 1175 rated products.
