WINDOW GRILLS & BURGLAR BARS

Grills only work if they are anchored properly and fitted tight to the opening — a decorative grill screwed to a plaster face is a deterrent, not a barrier. We fabricate window grills and burglar bars to your exact openings and fix them into the structure, with patterns that suit the building rather than fighting it.

WHAT WE BUILD

  • Fixed window grills in square bar, flat bar or tube
  • Burglar bars anchored into the block or concrete reveal
  • Decorative and patterned grills for street-facing windows
  • Grills with a hinged escape panel for bedrooms and fire routes
  • Iron window frames and replacement frames
  • Balcony and veranda screens

MATERIALS WE USE

Mild steel square bar

The standard for burglar bars — solid section, hard to cut, easy to paint.

Flat and twisted bar

Used for decorative patterns where the grill is also part of the frontage.

Galvanised or primed steel

Zinc-rich primer under the topcoat for windows that take driving rain.

Starting from

Quoted per opening

Typical lead time

3–7 days for a set of house windows

QUESTIONS WE GET ASKED

Do grills have to look like a cage?

No. Spacing and bar section determine security; pattern determines appearance. We can build a grill that reads as an architectural screen and still refuses a crowbar. Bring a photo of the look you want and we will work to it.

What about escape in a fire?

We recommend at least one hinged and internally-latched panel per bedroom so the opening can be used as an escape route. Fully fixed bars on every window look secure until you need to get out.

How are they fixed to the wall?

Into the structural reveal, not the plaster. Anchors go into block or concrete and the frame is set so the fixings are not accessible from outside once fitted.
