Security Grilles & Shutters — Visible Deterrent. Real Protection.
Security grilles and shutters protect storefronts, service windows, and commercial openings after hours — providing a physical barrier against break-in while maintaining visibility and ventilation where needed. They’re the standard for retail, transit, institutional, and high-security commercial applications.
Properly Specified for Your Security Level and Opening Type
Wilcox installs security grilles and shutters across Ontario for retail, institutional, parking, and commercial facilities. We specify the right security level, operation type (manual or motorized), and finish for your application — and our certified Ironworkers install every system to code. Emergency service available when security hardware fails after hours.
