I had a similar issue. You can check this page that will probably help you:

http://www.telerik.com/community/forums/aspnet-mvc/grid/client-template-not-displayed-with-mvc-grid.aspx

What it says is the binding occurs on the server when you provide the model like you do:

.Grid(Model).

and the client templates are applied when the binding occurs on the client. The simplest solution would be to use this overload of the ' Grid ' constructor:

.Grid<Namespace.Module.Your.Type>().

then the client template should appear.
