How home security shutters work, and what to ask for

Whether planning permission is needed depends on the property, the council and any listing or conservation area. Shutters protect glazing from storm debris and reduce noise from busy roads.

The box can sit on the face of the wall, inside the window reveal, or be built in during an extension or new build. Domestic shutters use slim double-skin aluminium laths filled with foam, which keeps them light and quiet.

What's included

  • Patio and bi-fold door shutters
  • Wall switch, remote, timer or app control
  • Colours matched to window frames
  • Face-fixed, reveal-fixed or built-in boxes
  • Quiet operation suited to bedrooms
  • Slim foam-filled aluminium laths

Rules in England

Shutters on a house: planning

For houses in England some small external changes fall under permitted development, but flats and maisonettes do not have the same rights, and listed buildings, conservation areas and Article 4 directions restrict changes to a property's appearance. If any of these apply, check with your council before ordering.

Home security shutters: common questions

Do you cover Durham?

Yes. We survey, fit and repair home security shutters in Durham and the DH1 district, as part of our coverage across County Durham.

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 home shutters help with heating bills?

Closed shutters add an insulating layer over the glass and reduce draughts, which helps keep heat in at night. The effect depends on the windows you already have.

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.

Do you work with landlords and managing agents?

Yes. We quote, fit and service shutters for landlords, managing agents and facilities teams, including multi-site planned maintenance.
