Choosing home security shutters for premises in Thatcham

Fire escape routes matter: shutters on escape windows need an easy manual override or battery backup so they can be opened quickly. Domestic shutters use slim double-skin aluminium laths filled with foam, which keeps them light and quiet.

Closed shutters add a layer of insulation and can block nearly all daylight, which helps bedrooms and media rooms. Electric operation with a wall switch, remote or timer makes it easy to close every shutter in the house at once.

What's included

  • Manual override or battery backup on escape windows
  • Quiet operation suited to bedrooms
  • Patio and bi-fold door shutters
  • Wall switch, remote, timer or app control
  • Face-fixed, reveal-fixed or built-in boxes
  • Colours matched to window frames

Rules in England

Electrical work

Electric shutters are wired to BS 7671, the IET Wiring Regulations. In homes in England, new circuits are notifiable under Part P of the Building Regulations, so the work is done by a registered electrician who can self-certify it, or notified to building control.

How it works

  1. Send the details

    Give us the postcode, approximate width and height, and what the shutter is protecting.

  2. We survey the opening

    An engineer measures and checks the fixings, power and any planning constraints.

  3. You approve a fixed price

    The quote lists the specification and price in writing, so there are no surprises.

  4. We fit and commission

    Your shutter is installed, tested and handed over with instructions and paperwork.

Home security shutters: common questions

Do you cover Thatcham?

Yes. Send the postcode and we will arrange a survey in Thatcham. We also cover nearby Newbury, Basingstoke and Didcot.

Can shutters be added to an existing window?

Yes. Most domestic shutters are retrofitted with a box on the face of the wall or in the reveal, so the window does not need to be replaced.

Do I need planning permission for shutters on my house?

It depends on the property. Houses in England often have permitted development rights for minor changes, but flats do not, and listed buildings, conservation areas and Article 4 areas add restrictions. Rules differ in Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland. We flag it at survey; your council has the final say.

How noisy are electric home shutters?

Domestic tube motors are quiet, and foam-filled laths reduce rattle, so shutters can be used in bedrooms without disturbing anyone.

How long does it take from order to fitting?

Shutters are made to measure after the survey, so the lead time depends on the product, colour and any security rating. We confirm it in your quote.

Is the survey free?

Yes, for new shutters, grilles and doors: the survey and written quote are free and there is no obligation to go ahead. Repair and servicing visits are charged, and we tell you the price before we visit.
