Invisible grill installation — frequently asked questions
How long does a Garware invisible grill installation take?
A single window or door is finished in 2 – 3 hours, a standard balcony in 3 – 5 hours and a flat with 3 – 4 openings inside one working day. Villas with 6 – 10 openings take two days.
How soon can you start after I approve the quotation?
Site measurement usually happens within 24 hours of your enquiry and fitting is scheduled 1 – 2 days after you approve the written quotation, subject to your society's working hours.
Is there any drilling into the glass or damage to the balcony?
No. The aluminium track is anchored to the slab, parapet or side wall with stainless fasteners. There is no welding and no wet masonry, so rented flats and finished interiors stay intact.
Which areas do you cover for invisible grill installation?
We install across all Chennai localities and 251+ towns in Tamil Nadu and Andhra Pradesh — each has its own service page with local rates and photos.
Do you clean up after the installation?
Yes. Drill dust is vacuumed or swept, off-cuts are carried away and every cable is pull-tested in front of you before handover along with the warranty card.
What if a cable loosens later?
One free re-tensioning visit is included and cable or fittings issues are covered for 5 – 10 years depending on the grade you choose. Call us and we schedule a visit within 48 hours.

Garware invisible grill installation in Chennai — what we install, how we price it and when we can come
Dedicated installation teams across Chennai localities and every major city in Tamil Nadu & Andhra Pradesh. In Chennai we work mainly on apartments, independent houses, schools and commercial buildings. The job we are called for most here is balcony safety nets, pigeon nets and bird-proofing. Invisible grills start at ₹120 per sq.ft. Every quote follows a free site measurement — nothing is estimated over the phone.
Local site conditions we plan for in Chennai
Every fixing uses stainless steel hardware and UV-stabilised netting so the installation survives sun, rain and coastal wind. That decision is made on site, not in the office, because the frame material and working height change the hardware more than the netting itself.
Buildings and openings we cover
- Balconies, windows, French windows and grill-front openings
- Duct shafts, light wells, stilt parking and lift-lobby gaps
- Terraces, parapets, staircase voids and open atriums
- Schools, hostels, factories, warehouses and sports grounds
Chennai neighbourhoods and nearby stretches we reach
All main residential and commercial pockets of Chennai. Dedicated installation teams cover Chennai localities and every major city in Tamil Nadu and Andhra Pradesh.
