What to know about home security shutters in Folkestone

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.

Smart controllers can link shutters to timers so the house looks occupied while you are away. 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

  • Manual override or battery backup on escape windows
  • Patio and bi-fold door shutters
  • Quiet operation suited to bedrooms
  • Blackout and added insulation when closed
  • Slim foam-filled aluminium laths
  • Wall switch, remote, timer or app control

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. Send the details

    Give us the postcode, approximate width and height, and what the shutter is protecting.

  2. We survey the opening

    An engineer measures and checks the fixings, power and any planning constraints.

  3. You approve a fixed price

    The quote lists the specification and price in writing, so there are no surprises.

  4. We fit and commission

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

Your questions answered

Do you cover Folkestone?

Yes. We survey, fit and repair home security shutters in Folkestone and the CT19 district, as part of our coverage across Kent.

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.

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.

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.

Can you fit outside trading hours?

Yes, out-of-hours fitting can be arranged for shops and businesses that cannot close during the day.
