Security grilles in Hertfordshire
Daily use matters, so staff in Hertfordshire and across the East of England are shown how to open, stack and lock the grille before we leave.

Owners across the East of England with more than one opening can have every grille priced together, including any at your Hertfordshire branch. If an exit is affected, staff at premises in the East of England need a clear opening routine, and we build that into your Hertfordshire grille design.

Common questions
Do you cover all of Hertfordshire?
Yes. ShopFronts UK works across Hertfordshire, including Bishop's Stortford, Hatfield, Hemel Hempstead, Hertford.
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.
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.
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.
