Home security shutters in Hitchin: the essentials

Domestic shutters use slim double-skin aluminium laths filled with foam, which keeps them light and quiet. Patio and bi-fold doors can be covered by a single wide shutter, protecting the largest area of glass.

Colours are chosen to match the window frames, with anthracite grey and white the most common choices. The box can sit on the face of the wall, inside the window reveal, or be built in during an extension or new build.

Options we can specify

  • Wall switch, remote, timer or app control
  • Patio and bi-fold door shutters
  • Colours matched to window frames
  • Slim foam-filled aluminium laths
  • Face-fixed, reveal-fixed or built-in boxes
  • Manual override or battery backup on escape windows

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.

How it works

  1. Tell us about the opening

    Send the postcode, a rough size and a photo if you have one, using the form or a call.

  2. Free survey

    We measure, check the structure, power supply and planning position, and talk through options.

  3. Written fixed price

    You get a written quote with the product, finish, controls and price before anything is ordered.

  4. Made, fitted and handed over

    The shutter is made to measure, fitted, commissioned and handed over with its documents.

Before you book in Hitchin

Do you cover Hitchin?

Yes. Send the postcode and we will arrange a survey in Hitchin. We also cover nearby Letchworth Garden City, Stevenage and Luton.

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.

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.

What warranty do I get?

Products carry the manufacturer's warranty, and the warranty for your shutter is set out in your quote.

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.
