What to know about home security shutters in Brighton
Patio and bi-fold doors can be covered by a single wide shutter, protecting the largest area of glass. Smart controllers can link shutters to timers so the house looks occupied while you are away.
Whether planning permission is needed depends on the property, the council and any listing or conservation area. Fire escape routes matter: shutters on escape windows need an easy manual override or battery backup so they can be opened quickly.
Options we can specify
- Blackout and added insulation when closed
- Manual override or battery backup on escape windows
- Quiet operation suited to bedrooms
- Wall switch, remote, timer or app control
- Patio and bi-fold door shutters
- Face-fixed, reveal-fixed or built-in boxes

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.

Home security shutters: common questions
Do you cover Brighton?
Yes. Brighton (BN2) is within our East Sussex coverage, along with nearby Hove, Burgess Hill and Worthing.
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.
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.
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.
Will you take away my old shutter?
Yes. Removal and disposal of an old shutter is included when we quote for a replacement.
