What to know about home security shutters in Ilford
The box can sit on the face of the wall, inside the window reveal, or be built in during an extension or new build. Patio and bi-fold doors can be covered by a single wide shutter, protecting the largest area of glass.
Closed shutters add a layer of insulation and can block nearly all daylight, which helps bedrooms and media rooms. 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
- Manual override or battery backup on escape windows
- Colours matched to window frames
- Patio and bi-fold door shutters
- Blackout and added insulation when closed
- Face-fixed, reveal-fixed or built-in boxes
- Quiet operation suited to bedrooms

Home security shutters: common questions
Do you cover Ilford?
Yes. Ilford (IG1) is within our Greater London coverage, along with nearby Barking, Becontree and Leytonstone.
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 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.
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.
Are your prices fixed?
Yes. After the survey you get a written price for the agreed specification, confirmed before anything is ordered or any work starts. If you change the specification, or a hidden problem such as a weak lintel is found during fitting, we price it and agree it with you before carrying on.
