Are roller grilles secure?
They form a strong barrier against entry, but small items could be reached through the gaps, so they suit displays rather than open counters of small goods.

Is the survey free in Hitchin?
For new shutters, yes. Repair visits in Hitchin are charged because they include diagnosis and work on the day.
