How home security shutters work, and what to ask for

Patio and bi-fold doors can be covered by a single wide shutter, protecting the largest area of glass. 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. Closed shutters add a layer of insulation and can block nearly all daylight, which helps bedrooms and media rooms.

Features to choose from

  • Slim foam-filled aluminium laths
  • Face-fixed, reveal-fixed or built-in boxes
  • Colours matched to window frames
  • Patio and bi-fold door shutters
  • Blackout and added insulation when closed
  • Wall switch, remote, timer or app control

Rules in England

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.

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.

Home security shutters: common questions

Do you cover Ipswich?

Yes. We survey, fit and repair home security shutters in Ipswich and the IP1 district, as part of our coverage across Suffolk.

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.

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.

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.

How long does it take from order to fitting?

Shutters are made to measure after the survey, so the lead time depends on the product, colour and any security rating. We confirm it in your quote.

Do your guide prices include VAT?

Guide prices are shown both excluding VAT and including VAT at the standard rate of 20%. For a home, the price including VAT is what you pay.
