How home security shutters work, and what to ask for
Electric operation with a wall switch, remote or timer makes it easy to close every shutter in the house at once. Shutters protect glazing from storm debris and reduce noise from busy roads.
Domestic shutters use slim double-skin aluminium laths filled with foam, which keeps them light and quiet. Whether planning permission is needed depends on the property, the council and any listing or conservation area.
What's included
- Quiet operation suited to bedrooms
- Patio and bi-fold door shutters
- Colours matched to window frames
- Blackout and added insulation when closed
- Wall switch, remote, timer or app control

Rules in England
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.

Before you book in Ashington
Do you cover Ashington?
Yes. We survey, fit and repair home security shutters in Ashington and the NE63 district, as part of our coverage across Northumberland.
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.
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 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.
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.
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.
