What to know about home security shutters in Seaham
Colours are chosen to match the window frames, with anthracite grey and white the most common choices. Domestic shutters use slim double-skin aluminium laths filled with foam, which keeps them light and quiet.
Electric operation with a wall switch, remote or timer makes it easy to close every shutter in the house at once. Patio and bi-fold doors can be covered by a single wide shutter, protecting the largest area of glass.

Rules in England

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.

Home security shutters: common questions
Do you cover Seaham?
Yes. We survey, fit and repair home security shutters in Seaham and the SR7 district, as part of our coverage across County Durham.
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.
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.
Can I get a quote from photos?
Photos and approximate sizes let us give you a guide price quickly. A survey is still needed before a shutter is made, because it is built to exact measurements.
Do your guide prices include VAT?
Guide prices are shown both excluding VAT and including VAT at the standard rate of 20%. For a home, the price including VAT is what you pay.
