Choosing home security shutters for premises in Derbyshire

Closed shutters add a layer of insulation and can block nearly all daylight, which helps bedrooms and media rooms. Shutters protect glazing from storm debris and reduce noise from busy roads. Domestic shutters use slim double-skin aluminium laths filled with foam, which keeps them light and quiet.

The box can sit on the face of the wall, inside the window reveal, or be built in during an extension or new build. Electric operation with a wall switch, remote or timer makes it easy to close every shutter in the house at once.

Options we can specify

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

Covering Derbyshire

We cover Derbyshire from Derby to Chesterfield, Long Eaton and Ilkeston, with 12 towns listed below. Planning decisions for external shutters sit with your local council in England, and we check the position at survey.

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.

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.

Safety of powered shutters

Powered doors and shutters are treated as machinery. The installer commissions them with a risk assessment, safety devices where the risk calls for them and force checks to BS EN 12453, then hands over a declaration of conformity and maintenance instructions. In workplaces, the employer or whoever controls the premises must keep doors maintained and safe for staff and visitors.

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

Your questions answered

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.

Will shutters stop me escaping in a fire?

They must not. Shutters on bedroom or escape windows are fitted with a manual override or battery backup so they can be opened quickly, and we discuss escape routes at survey.

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.

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.

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.
