What to know about home security shutters in Leicestershire

Colours are chosen to match the window frames, with anthracite grey and white the most common choices. Shutters protect glazing from storm debris and reduce noise from busy roads. 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. Fire escape routes matter: shutters on escape windows need an easy manual override or battery backup so they can be opened quickly.

Specification options

  • Blackout and added insulation when closed
  • Quiet operation suited to bedrooms
  • Face-fixed, reveal-fixed or built-in boxes
  • Manual override or battery backup on escape windows
  • Patio and bi-fold door shutters
  • Wall switch, remote, timer or app control

Covering Leicestershire

We cover Leicestershire from Leicester to Loughborough, Hinckley and Coalville, with 8 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.

Questions about home security shutters in Leicestershire

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 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.

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.

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.

What details help you quote quickly?

The postcode, the approximate width and height of the opening, whether you want manual or electric operation, and a photo of the frontage.
